Driver
Growing demand for plastic straps in many industries
The growing demand for plastic straps in many industries, the transportation of heavy materials, online delivery, e-commerce, pharmaceutical, electronic, food, and beverage, has led to an increase in contributing to the growth of the plastic straps market. The benefits of plastic straps used for packaging include sustainability and recyclability, branding and customization, ease of application, resistance to weather conditions, palletized shipments, the packaging of heavy and bulky items, etc.
Presence of alternative materials
The presence of alternative materials, the high cost of raw materials, lower tensile strength compared to steel straps, susceptibility to degradation from weather exposure and extreme temperatures, etc., can hamper the plastic straps market growth. The alternatives for plastic straps include textile straps, metal straps, fabric straps, polypropylene ropes, paper straps, etc., which can restrain the market’s growth.
Future of plastic strap
The future of plastic straps includes the benefits of customized printing on plastic straps, can be developed with chemical resistance, will not rot or rust, self-adjusting, cost-effective, easy to handle, is stronger than steel, efficiently reduces strapping-related worker mishaps, etc., helps to the growth of the plastic straps market. Plastic straps are the heroes of the packaging world. Logistic sector expansion and increased recycling infrastructure will help the market’s growth in the future.
The polyester segment dominated the plastic straps market in 2023, and it is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. The benefits of polyester strapping include shock absorbing, ecological adhesive resin, UV resistant and weatherproof, the hotmelt lamination allows controlled unrolling, environmentally responsible glue resin, strong and durable, lightweight, re-pensionable, adaptability, weather resistant, gentle on delicate surfaces and edges, cost savings, eliminated damaged costs, fewer material costs, safer alternative to steel strapping, performance and durability, polyester strapping and environment, load stability, elastic memory, etc. The applications of polyester straps include heavy-duty agriculture packaging, construction, logistics, transportation, manufacturing and distribution, recycling, consistent performance, and packaging of materials from lightweight to heavy-duty instruments.
The polypropylene segment is expected to be growing significantly during the forecast period. The benefits of polypropylene (PP) strapping include a smooth surface for easy application, durability, and flexibility, suitability for light to medium duty applications, resistance to moisture, rust, and corrosion, highly tensile strength for securely holding heavy loads, cost-effective, easy to handle and lightweight, good elasticity, durable, versatility, etc. help to the growth of the plastic straps market. Polypropylene plastic strapping is designed for light and medium-duty applications like carton closure and reinforcement, bundling, unitizing, and palletizing. Polypropylene strapping may hold items weighing up to 400 kilograms, mainly those with light elastic properties. Polypropylene straps are available in many widths; the most common options are 19 mm, 15 mm, and 12 mm straps.
The wood segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing during the forecast period. The plastic strap plays an important role in the wood/lumber industry. The wood/lumbar industry needs durable and secure strapping materials to bundle and transport wood-based products efficiently, which helps the growth of the plastic straps market.
In the wood industry, polypropylene straps are a popular choice because of their reliability and affordability. Propylene straps are cost-effective for wood businesses, which makes them a practical choice that needs a high quantity of strapping materials, and it makes a balance between affordability and strength. The propylene strap is lightweight, which makes it easy to handle during transport and packaging. Polypropylene strap is moisture resistant, which helps to maintain bundle integrity and prevent deterioration.
