Poly(propylene carbonate) Market to Surpass US$ 590 Million, Expanding at 7% CAGR by 2035: Fact.MR Analysis

Poly(propylene carbonate) market grows with eco-awareness, fueled by demand in sustainable packaging, electronics, and automotive, says Fact.MR.

ROCKVILLE, MD, UNITED STATES, May 5, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- According to Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider, the poly (propylene carbonate) market was valued at USD 285 million in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period of 2025 to 2035.

With the demand for more sustainable high performance materials to replace traditional plastics on the rise, the poly (propylene carbonate) market is growing rapidly. Strong regulatory mandates and worldwide sustainability initiatives are contributing in a big way to the demand for eco-friendly packaging, automotive and electronics applications. Biodegradable and carbon dioxide utilization of PPC materials are becoming important alternatives.

The physical properties of PPC such as flexibility, strength and thermal stress resistance have been greatly improved due to technological developments, filling in the limitations of previous materials. Everything from flexible packaging, to green electronics, to eco-conscious automotive manufacturing is taking note of its potential.

Traction is also being generated through campaigns to decrease single use plastic and carbon footprint, where PPC has started to find itself in new territory (such as medicinal grade packaging and agriculture applications).

Poly(propylene carbonate) Industry News:

November 2023 saw SK Geo Centric break ground on the Ulsan Advanced Recycling Cluster (ARC) in South Korea. The $1.4 billion USD facility covers 215,000 square meters and will process 320,000 metric tons of waste plastic per year. The ARC will combine three cutting-edge recycling technologies: pyrolysis, high-purity polypropylene extraction, and depolymerization, representing a big leap towards a circular plastics economy.
October 2023, BASF has agreed to sell its Neopolen expanded polypropylene (EPP) foam business to Knauf Industries. The deal encompasses the Schwarzheide, Germany, production plant at BASF's Schwarzheide site and related products, intellectual property rights, customer and supplier agreements, and trademark licenses. This strategic move is in line with BASF's process of streamlining its business portfolio and concentrating on core areas of competence.
