Plastic Market in Thailand: Drivers and Challenges

One of the key drivers supporting the plastic market growth in Thailand is the increasing demand for packaging materials. The demand for flexible plastic packaging from hospitals, drug manufacturers, and PPE manufacturers in the healthcare industry is expected to remain robust during the forecast period due to the pandemic. The demand for plastics in medical devices, such as testing equipment, ventilators, syringes, and others, and PPE such as masks, face shields, and others, has been increased. The demand for packaging materials in the healthcare sector is expected to remain stable during the forecast period. The rising demand for packaging materials will drive the growth of the plastic market in Thailand during the forecast period.

Stringent regulations over the use of plastics are hindering the plastic market growth in Thailand. Discarded plastic food packaging constitutes a major part of the packaging waste generated worldwide. After use, plastic packaging is mostly discarded in landfills or in the ocean, where its non-degradable nature poses a threat to marine life. When polystyrene (PS) degrades, it breaks down into styrene monomer, styrene dimer, and styrene trimer, which are carcinogenic. Various regulatory bodies and governments in the country are framing regulations and introducing initiatives aimed to reduce plastic waste. Flexible plastic packaging is extremely efficient in protecting the products packaged within. However, the demand for this type of packaging may decrease during the forecast period due to the increasing focus on reducing the use of plastics in packaging.
