Plastic Compounding Market Size - By Region

The Fossil-based segment is leading the Global Plastic Compounding Market by Source in 2023; thereby, achieving a market value of $60.2 billion by 2031. Fossil-based raw materials such as petroleum-derived polymers (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene) and additives are often more cost-effective than their bio-based or alternative counterparts. This cost advantage makes fossil-based compounds attractive for manufacturers seeking economical solutions without compromising performance.

The Packaging segment would register a CAGR of 6.8% during (2024 - 2031). Compound polymers provide alternatives to conventional packaging materials like paperboard, metal, and glass that are both lightweight and durable. Using compounded plastics in packaging enables manufacturers to reduce material costs, transportation expenses, and environmental impact while maintaining product integrity and safety. Thus, the segment will grow rapidly in the coming years.
