H1 2023: The leading players in the Plastic Recycling market on a global scale were Masotina S.p.A, I.blu - Gruppo iren, and Montello S.p.A. In March 2023, PureCycle Technologies and Mitsui & Co. Ltd. announced the signing of a heads of agreement (HOA) for the development and operation of a polypropylene (PP) recycling plant in Japan. This plant will convert PP waste into ultra-pure recycled (UPR) resin, with an annual capacity of 59 thousand tonnes (130 million pounds) with the expected year of completion and operation is 2026. In April 2023, Fost Plus signed a deal with Morssinkhof Plastics Belgium to construct a new plastic recycling facility. The plant will convert polypropylene, polyethylene, and HDPE packaging waste into raw materials for further packaging purposes. The plant will have an annual recycling capacity of 40 thousand tonnes. Fost Plus intends to supply the plant with 24 thousand tonnes of PMD garbage gathered from Belgian residences. Its manufacturing capabilities are reported to include polypropylene solutions such as ready-meal trays, yogurt cups, and butter dishes, as well as HDPE bottles for milk, shampoo and conditioner, detergent, and shower gel. The plant will be operational in October 2024 and will recycle polypropylene (PP) packaging (such as butter tubs and ready-meal trays) as well as polyethylene packaging (such as shampoo and milk packaging). In May 2023, TotalEnergies announced the acquisition of Iber Resinas of Spain, a popular name in the mechanical recycling of plastics. TotalEnergies aimed to grow its production of circular polymers in Europe, improve its access to feedstock through Iber Resinas' supplier network, and expand its portfolio of recycled goods as a result of this acquisition.

The global Plastic Recycling market had reached approximately 55 million tonnes in 2022 and is expected to grow at an impressive CAGR of 5.57% during the forecast period till 2030.
