Market Overview

Thermoformed plastics are made by heating a plastic sheet and converting it into a usable product.

The global thermoformed plastics market is segmented on the basis of the product into polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene (PE), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), high impact polystyrene (HIPS), and others. Polyethylene terephthalate is the leading segment of the thermoformed plastics market, due to their biocompatibility and consequent applications in various sectors such as food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, personal care, and others. The shifting trend towards the use of PET over metals is likely to propel the market growth. Polyethylene (PE) is the second largest segment and is expected to drive the market over the review period due to easy availability and biodegradability. Moreover, the technological trends have resulted in products such as high impact polystyrene (HIPS) with properties such as good impact resistance, excellent machinability, dimensional stability, easy to glue and paint, and low cost which is anticipated to fuel the market growth. Based on the manufacturing procedures of thermoformed plastics, vacuum forming is extensively adopted due to its low cost, rapid product development cycles, and availability of colors and textures.
