Southeast Asia Recycled Polyvinyl Chloride Market Growth & Trends

The Southeast Asia recycled polyvinyl chloride market size is expected to reach USD 563.15 million by 2030, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2022 to 2030. Increasing penetration for building & construction, packaging, electrical & electronics, and automotive applications coupled with rising infrastructure spending, particularly in the Asian & Southeast Asian region is expected to remain a key driving factor for recycled polyvinyl chloride (PVC) across Southeast Asia over the forecast period.

Higher cost efficiency and easier availability of conventional polyvinyl chloride than recycled polyvinyl chloride are expected to remain the key challenges for market participants. Furthermore, the production of recycled polyvinyl chloride requires specialized machinery and equipment and most importantly polyvinyl chloride waste collection services.

Post — consumer recycled PVC emerged as the leading raw material in terms of market share in 2021. Increasing demand for consumer electronics followed by the rise in disposable income of the middle — class population is anticipated to derive the demand for post — consumer recycled PVC across Southeast Asia.

According to the World Bank Group study conducted in 2021, more than 75% of recyclable plastics in the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia are wasted. This represents an untapped business opportunity for companies offering recycled polyvinyl chloride and other recycled plastics in these countries.

In addition, the joint efforts by the Incubation Network (comprising plastic end — user companies, government organizations, and plastic resins manufacturers), Alliance to End Plastic Waste, and Global Plastic Action Partnership to tackle the plastic waste management problem in Southeast Asia can create more growth opportunities for the recycled PVC market.

For instance, in, June 2022 Plastic Waste to Value Southeast Asia Challenge was launched by Alliance to End Plastic Waste, Global Plastic Action Partnership, and The Incubation Network which focuses on developing plastic recycling and upcycling projects in Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines.

During the COVID — 19 pandemic, Southeast Asia along with the rest of the regions witnessed a decrease in plastic waste collection due to the implementation of lockdowns to contain the spread of the virus. Furthermore, the recycling units were brought to a halt which further brought a decline in the recycling process across the region. Hence, the recycled PVC market across Southeast Asia witnessed a significant decline.
