Request Now !The global market for waste plastic in manufacturing of brick is experiencing substantial growth, and is expected to continue to grow rapidly in the next few years. Plastic is one of the most widely used materials for applications like packaging and manufacturing of various products. According to UNEP, the total plastic waste generated globally is around 300 million which accounts for 18% of the total waste generate annually. The recycle and reuse of plastic is very complicated process attributed to the variety of plastic waste and its different compositions thus, only 9% of all the plastic waste ever produced has been recycled, 12% has been incinerated, while the rest 79% has accumulated in various landfills and natural water bodies. Bricks are an essential construction material used extensively for the purpose of construction of partition walls, structural walls, boundary walls and is also used in road construction. Global research over the last few years have proved that waste plastic can be effectively used in the manufacturing of bricks, which is a key driver in the growth of market for waste plastic in manufacturing of bricks throughout the forecast period.
Description
Bricks are usually manufactured of clay or cement, both are exhaustible natural resources, and the irrational use of cement and clay increase carbon emission. Plastic being a non-decomposable material is either incinerated or dumped in landfills, which results in air and soil pollution. Hence, the use of plastic waste in the form of powder or flakes can significantly reduce the quantity of soil and cement required for the manufacturing of bricks as well as reduce the quantity of plastic waste. Use of plastic also reduces cost of bricks which ensure substantial increase in utilizing waste plastic in manufacturing of bricks.
COVID-19 Impact analysis
Top Impacting Factors
The use of plastic in bricks does not only reduces plastic waste but also reduces the use of natural clay and cement, thus reducing the carbon footprint of the brick industry, which acts as a major driving force in the market growth of waste plastic bricks. The rapid urbanization over the past few years has exponentially increased the demand for residential and commercial buildings, thus increasing the demand for bricks. 25% of clay or cement can be easily replaced by waste plastic without compromising its strength and durability. Use of waste plastic also reduces the cost of bricks, as waste plastic is a free resource. The rising importance of green and zero emissions buildings, further encourage the use of waste plastic in manufacturing of bricks. The wide range of application of bricks in building as well as infrastructure sector ensures sustained demand for waste plastic bricks. The lack of building codes especially for the use of recyclable construction material such as waste plastic bricks is a major restraint in the growth of the industry. The increasing awareness about sustainable development among masses and the need to find new ways to reuse or recycle plastic, ensures substantial growth of waste plastic brick market.
