Product Definition:
A plastic shopping bag is a bag made of thin, flexible plastic film, typically used for carrying merchandise. The importance of plastic shopping bags is that they are strong and lightweight, making them easy to transport.
PE:
Polyethylene (PE) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer. It is produced from the reaction of ethylene and oxygen. PE has high demand in packaging applications such as food containers, beverage bottles, and plastic bags among others owing to its properties such as low weight, flexibility at low temperatures along with resistance to most solvents including water.
PP:
Polypropylene (PP) is a thermoplastic polymer used in the manufacturing of plastic bags. It offers several beneficial properties such as high chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, and excellent barrier to gas and water vapor which makes it suitable for grocery store produce packaging.
The global polypropylene market size was valued at USD 33 billion in 2016.
Application Insights:
The market is segmented by application into a supermarket, restaurant, home and others. The supermarket held the largest share of over 70% in 2017. It is also expected to be the fastest-growing application at an estimated CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing demand for fresh food and other retail products in emerging economies including China, India and Brazil.
