Plastic Extrusion Machine Market Growth & Trends

The demand for Plastic extrusion machine is rising owing to the ability of plastics to be formed into complex shapes and the relative ease compared to metals or ceramics. Moreover, surged usage of engineering-grade plastics for producing pipe, fencing, window frames, plastic films, wire insulation, and deck railing is anticipated to grow during the forecast period.

Plastic extruded parts provide a solution for high volume and cost-efficiency. The recent trend of lightweight in the automotive industry to enhance fuel efficiency has resulted in increased use of plastic extruded parts coupled with the growing adoption of extruded products in the packaging industry is projected to drive the market of plastic extrusion machines over the forecast period.

The demand for plastic extruded products has been on the rise for several years because of several advantages of the extrusion process and the rising demand from end-use industries such as automotive, electronics, consumer goods, telecommunications, and renewable energy. Moreover, the low cost per part, flexibility in operation, high production volume, and compounding ability are the other factors responsible for the growing demand for extruded plastic and metal products.

Plastic extrusion machine manufacturers are seeking collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions to develop advanced and innovative solutions. In addition, manufacturers are also adopting several strategies, like new product development and geographical expansion, to enhance their market penetration and cater to end-use industries. For instance, in September 2022, KraussMaffei completed the construction of the new plant Laatzen near Hanover. The new plant will be used to produce recycling equipment and extrusion systems for the rubber and plastics processing sector.
