The trash bags market is projected to grow from USD 9.5 billion in 2019 to USD 12.1 billion by 2024 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.9% during the forecast period. Trash bags are disposable bags used for the collection, handling, and disposal of trash. They were invented by a Canadian inventor, Harry Wasylyk, along with Larry Hansen in 1950 for commercial use. Garbage bags are commonly manufactured using thermoplastics, such as Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). LDPE trash bags are thick, flexible, and highly resistant to puncturing and tearing, making them ideal for use in the kitchen and in outdoor trash cans, while HDPE trash bags undergo a different manufacturing process as compared with LDPE trash bags, making them thinner and less puncture resistant, ideal for use in offices and restrooms.
The adoption of trash bags is high in developed markets as compared to emerging markets. This can be attributed to the high disposable incomes in developed economies, leading to high standards of living. Rapid urbanization in emerging markets has led to a substantial increase in the adoption of trash bags. Continued developments in these regions, coupled with increasing disposable incomes, are expected to further boost the consumption of trash bags in this geography.

The retail segment has been showing robust growth in the consumption of trash bags across the globe. The demand for star sealed bottom trash bags is the highest globally due to their storage capacities and high durability properties, such as puncture resistance, wear & tear resistance, leak-proof, etc. Star sealed trash bags are the ideal choice in the Industrial segment as these bags can carry dry as well as wet waste. In addition to this, these bags are suitable for indoor as well as outdoor use as these bags can conform to the shapes of trash cans. However, the demand for drawstring trash bags is majorly in the retail segment as these are not available for large capacities of wastes.

The acquisition enabled the company in strengthening its position in the custom-made trash bags market.
In December 2017, Novolex acquired certain assets and business operations of Shields Bag and Printing Co. (US), a manufacturer of custom engineered flexible packaging products.
