Market Overview:

The global plastic bottle crusher market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2022 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for plastic bottles from various end-use industries, such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. In addition, the growing awareness about environmental protection has led to an increase in the adoption of plastic bottle crushers across regions. By type, the single-axis plastic bottle crusher dominates the market, accounting for more than two-thirds of total sales in 2018. This is due to its lower cost and easy operation. Multi-axis crushers are gaining popularity owing to their ability to crush multiple types of plastic bottles simultaneously. Application-wise, plastic bottle processing dominates the market, followed by production and others.

Product Definition:

A plastic bottle crusher is a machine that breaks down plastic bottles into smaller pieces. This can be done by using a variety of different methods, including crushing and grinding.

Single-axis Plastic Bottle Crusher:

Single-axis plastic bottle crusher is a new type of machinery, which can reduce plastic bottles to pieces. It has advantages such as it can be used in small and large quantities, it does not require any external force for operation, and has low operating costs. These factors make a single-axis bottle crusher ideal for crushing various types of plastic bottles including PET, PP, PS, and PVC.

Multi-axis Plastic Bottle Crusher:

The multi-axis plastic bottle crusher is used to reduce the size of plastic bottles. The machine consists of a horizontal platform, which has vertical adjustment capabilities. It also has an automated feeder that can hold the bottle at any desired position and then start crushing from that position. The machine is designed in such a way that it reduces the size of both narrow and wide-neck bottles with equal efficiency.

Application Insights:

Plastic bottle processing was the largest application segment in 2015, accounting for over 60.0% of global revenue share. The plastic bottle processing industry includes crushing, washing, filling, and capping. Plastic bottles are used for packaging various beverages such as water, soft drinks, and juices on a large scale which requires high-quality plastics to be processed efficiently. Single-axis plastic bottle crusher is widely used for crushing in the beverage industry since it offers easy operation with low maintenance cost as compared to multi-axis crusher machines. The other application segment mainly includes glass bottles and metal cans among others; however, these applications are expected to witness sluggish growth due to declining consumption of alcoholic beverages such as wine and beer among other non-alcoholic beverages like mineral water & soda pop, etc.

Regional Analysis:

The Asia Pacific was the largest regional market for plastic bottle crushers and accounted for over 45% of global revenue in 2015. The region is expected to continue its dominance owing to the presence of a large number of plastic bottle manufacturers in countries such as China, India, Thailand, and Vietnam. Increasing demand from end-use industries such as food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and others is also expected to drive growth over the forecast period. North America emerged as the second fastest growing regional market with a CAGR close to 7% from 2022 to 2030 due primarily to high consumption levels in Mexico coupled with increasing production capacities across the U.S., Canada, and other Central & South American countries are anticipated boost industry growth over next eight years time frame.

Growth Factors:

• Increasing demand from the beverage and food industry for crushed plastic bottles to reduce the cost of transportation and storage.
• Growing awareness about the benefits of recycling among consumers is resulting in an increase in demand for recycled plastic products including bottle crushers.
• Rising prices of virgin PET resin due to limited availability and increasing global demand is prompting manufacturers to seek alternatives such as recycled PET, which is driving the growth of the market for bottle crushers.
• Stringent government regulations on waste management are encouraging companies to invest in waste-to-energy plants that use recycled plastics as feedstock, thereby providing a boost to the sales of bottle crushers.
