DUBLIN, October 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Plastic Pallets Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.
The analysts forecast the global plastic pallets market to grow at a CAGR of 7.12% during the period 2016-2020.
According to the report, demand from warehouse and logistics industry will be a key driver for market growth. The logistic sector was valued at $775 billion in 2015, and is expected to grow at CAGR of 5% through the forecast period.
The market growth is mainly driven by increasing economic activity and demands from the e-commerce sector. The logistic industry is increasing their focus on specific industries such as automotive, pharmaceutical and grocery, which are the key end users of plastic pallets.
Further, the report states that one of the challenges for the market will be difficulty in disposal after use. Plastic is not a bio-degradable material as it emits methane gas when decomposed. To make plastic pallets sustainable, manufacturers need to apply reverse logistics process to ensure that pallets are disposed. However, the process of reverse logistics is highly expensive, which results in suppliers and manufacturers disposing of the pallets.
Most of the plastic pallets are decomposed in landfill where it emits poisonous gas. Though plastic recycling is considered as a viable option, the type of resin used in plastics varies to great levels. HDPE infused plastic pallets are highly flammable making it hazardous to the environment.
