According to a report by Grand View Research, Inc., the global injection molded plastics market is anticipated to reach USD 295.89 billion by 2022. The process of injection molding involves injecting molten plastic into a mold through heat and solidifying the product later on. Diminishing production error is likely to enhance the significance of advanced technology in mass production of plastic products.
High demand for plastic components in various end-use industries such as automotive, electronics, medical, and packaging is expected to drive growth. Properties like minimum waste production, faster production, and low labor cost can augment the need for injection molded plastics. Growing adoption of biodegradable polymers in medical devices owing to tough government regulations can impel demand. Moreover, increasing usage of plastics in the automotive sector to enhance performance and reduce weight is expected to contribute well to product demand.
The worldwide polyurethane market can be segmented on the basis of product, application, and region. Based on application, the market can be segregated into automotive, building & construction, medical, consumables & electronics, and packaging. Based on raw material, the market can be divided into polypropylene, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and polystyrene. Propylene is a major raw material for injection molded plastics and accounted for 35% of the total demand in 2014. It is commonly used in packaging material, automotive parts, and household goods. On the other hand, growing use of electronic housings and medical devices is likely to propel the demand for ABS during the forecast period (2017 to 2022).

U.S. injection molded plastic market revenue by raw material, 2012-2022 (USD Million)
Considering the demand, most manufacturing companies are investing in advanced machinery to create better products for consumers. For instance, a leading supplier of machinery, parts, and services named Cincinnati Process Technologies (CPT) recently announced the inclusion of a new line of injection molding machines by Asian Plastic Machinery (AP). The Super Master EV2 Series machines are equipped with high precision servo drive system and proprietary servo controller. They offers precision, speed, repeatability, and temperature control. Rapid clamping moment helps in reducing clamping time and noise levels. The new line is likely to save around 80 per cent water and energy usage.
Growing environmental concerns regarding disposal of major raw materials such as propylene, styrene, and benzene, along with volatility in their prices, are expected to hinder market growth over the forecast period. However, most manufacturing companies are likely to shift their focus to bio-based plastics. Moreover, increasing use of injection molded plastics in automotive components and medical devices is likely to create lucrative opportunities for several manufacturers in the industries.
