About Molded Plastic Packaging
Plastics that can be molded into various sizes and shapes or forms are classified as molded plastics. Injection molding, blow molding, rotational molding, and extrusion molding are the different types of technologies used in the production of molded plastic products. The major categories of plastics used for such productions include PE, PP, polystyrene, and PVC. Molded plastics are used in a wide range of sectors like packaging, consumables and electronics, and automotive and transportation. Molded plastics are preferred over other forms of packaging because of their certain physical and chemical properties, which make them ideal packaging materials. They are tough, durable, lightweight, easy to transport, and are not brittle like glass. In addition, the cost per unit of production is low in case of molded plastics, which find a wide variety of applications.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global molded plastic packaging market to grow at a CAGR of 5.07%, in terms of revenue, during the period 2016-2020.
