The "Global Recycled Plastics in Construction Market 2024-2029" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Global Recycled Plastics in Construction Market was valued at USD 5 Billion in 2024 and is forecast to reach USD 6.6 Billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5.3%.

In recent years, the demand for recycled materials has soared due to their economic and environmental benefits. Recycled plastics has emerged as a prominent choice for non-residential buildings, providing a sustainable substitute for conventional building materials.

The global buildings and construction industry is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHGs), accounting for 37% of GHGs globally. The manufacturing process and the use of cement, aluminum and steel have a major carbon footprint (2023, Building Materials and The Climate: Constructing A New Future, UNEP). As the climate and plastic pollution crisis worsens, there is a growing need for viable solutions to combat their effects on the environment, mainly in industries that have a significant environmental footprint, such as construction. However, there are multiple ways in which the construction industry can curb its contribution to emissions, and using recycled plastics is one of them.

Recycled plastics are finding increasing use in construction applications worldwide. Their major benefits include lightweight, ease of assembly, low maintenance and sustainability. The performance of recycled plastics as a construction material not only ensures long-term durability and optimizes the life value of the product, but also safeguards the safety of the building structure. The downside to plastics recycling is that it is expensive, due to the cost-intensive process of collection and sorting.

Innovations in plastics recycling to reduce costs and improve performance present an opportunity for the construction sector to reduce energy consumption and curb waste generation. Moreover, opportunities for recycled plastics to be used in concrete structures and road construction are likely to pose lucrative growth opportunities in the coming years.
