Global Plastic Rigid IBC Market Segment Analysis:

By Material, the segment is divide into HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PVC, and others. HDPE intermediate bulk containers are dominating the Plastic rigid intermediate container market. HDPE stands for High-density polyethylene. High-density polyethylene intermediate bulk containers are thermoplastic polymers produced from the monomer ethylene. The melting point of High-density polyethylene intermediate bulk containers is 120-140 degrees Celsius. The density of High-density polyethylene is 0.93 to 0.97 g/cm3. High-density polyethylene intermediate bulk containers are chemical resistant and have higher tensile strength as compare to polyethylene forms.

High-density polyethylene is affordable, offers high quality, operates harsh temperature, Nonleaching, UV resistant, stiff material, and amazing durability, and waterproof and stronger are the factors that drive the High-density polyethylene intermediate bulk containers market and make more preferable as compare to others.

By Capacity, the segment is categorized into up to 500 liters, 500 to 1000 liters, 1000 to 1500 liters, 1500 to 2000 liters, and above 2000 liters. 500 – 1000 liters segment is dominating the capacity segment of Plastic rigid intermediate bulk containers market. 500 – 1000 liters capacity size is the ideal size and suitable for all kinds of industry from the food industry to the chemical industry. The second dominating size is 1000 – 1500 liters this sub-segment is expected to show significant growth in the petrochemical and lubricant industries as the industries require larger containers for the transportation of chemicals, solvents, and liquids.

By End-Use, the segment is divided into industrial chemicals, petroleum & lubricants, food & beverages, paints ink dyes, pharmaceuticals, and others. By end-user industry food and beverages, industries are dominating the High-density polyethylene intermediate bulk containers market. The market share of the food and beverages industry in plastic packaging is 51% and is estimated to show sustainable growth in the market.

The food and beverages segment is endorsing the growing demand for food storage containers with sealed and air-tight facilities for the transport of bulk food products and various beverages from the manufacturing industry to end-user or consumer. This reduces the contamination of bulk food products and prevents them from climate conditions and environmental damages.
