Recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) flakes market in China is well established. However, the ban on plastic waste imports in the country is expected to hamper the growth of the market in the country from 2022 to 2030.
China was the largest importer of plastic waste in the world before the imposition of the import ban on plastic waste in the country in December 2018. Citing environmental and health concerns at the World Trade Organization in July 2017, the government of the country announced a ban on the import of 24 types of waste.
Of these, five are different types of plastics. The imposition of the ban in China has redirected plastic waste to Southeast Asian countries in large volumes. This has led plastic recyclers in China to relocate to Southeast Asian countries. The ban on plastic imports in the country is anticipated to continue negatively impacting the growth of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) flakes market in China in the coming years as well.
