plastics
The production and processing of plastics in primary forms is one of the most important segments of the EU industry. The global production of plastics and plastic products in 2019 exceeded 368 million tonnes and was 2.5% higher than in the previous year. Europe’s share of the global plastics market is estimated at 16% (59 million tonnes). Poland, with a demand of 3.6 million tonnes (7% of the European market share), ranks sixth in Europe. The greatest interest among manufacturers is in polyethylene (about 30% of the demand for plastics), polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride and polystyrene.
Due to their exceptional durability deriving from their chemical structure, low weight, ease of processing, resistance to high temperatures, variety and relatively low prices, plastics are used in almost every sector of the economy. Appropriate adjustment of the production method allows you to obtain almost any shape, quickly and in large quantities. Material losses are relatively low. Food packed in appropriate plastic materials allows to extend the storage time, reduce the use of preservatives, preserve the nutritional value and taste of the packed products, which results in a reduction in the amount of wasted food. The benefits of using the broadly understood “plastic” make plastics irreplaceable in some industries.
In Poland, the packaging industry consumes the most plastics (1/3 of the domestic demand for plastics). The remaining part of the demand for plastics comes from industries such as construction, automotive, electrical, electronic and household appliances.
