Plastic processing machinery is used to create plastic products using pellets, granules, and powdered forms of raw materials, such as resin and crude oil. Industrial plastic processing machinery includes machines, such as IMMs, extruders, BMMs, hollow molders, 3D plastic printers, and thermal forming machines. Plastic processing machinery finds applications in industries like packaging, consumer goods, and construction.

Plastics that can be molded into several sizes and shapes or forms are classified as blow molded plastics. Injection blow molding, rotational blow molding, and extrusion blow molding are the different types of technologies used in the production of blow molded plastic bottles. The major categories of plastics used for such productions include polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Blow molded plastics are used in a wide range of industries such as packaging, electronics, automotive, and transportation.

The global anti-fatigue mats market is expected to be driven by an increasing demand from the manufacturing industry, healthcare organizations, research laboratories, and industrial kitchens. Anti-microbial, anti-slippery, and aesthetically appealing features of anti-fatigue mats are driving the market growth. Increasing safety and healthy working environment is another factor contributing to the growth of the market. It is due to various ergonomic training and programs that help workers to improve their work environment.However, the need for regular maintenance is a challenge as some mats require normal washing and some require pressurized washing. Objects that are stuck in holes of mats are difficult to clean, and therefore, may lead to non-compliance and needs to be replaced frequently. Another issue with anti-fatigue mats in the market is curling and buckling of mat, which is due to various reasons including placing the mat on an uneven floor. This can lead to falling and slipping, which is a potential threat. Use of recycled materials to manufacture anti-fatigue mats is likely to contribute significantly to the market growth during the forecast period. Recycled mats are eco-friendly, costeffective,and durable. The global anti-fatigue mats market is likely to grow at a CAGR of 4.74% during the forecast period.

Spout pouches are advanced versions of stand-up pouches. The global spout pouch market is growing due to the superior quality,transportation convenience,and ease of usage of these pouches.Spout pouches are widely used for baby foods. This is because they offer the convenience of feeding. The global baby food packaging market for flexible packaging is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 7%-8% during the forecast period.An improvement in economic conditions, an increase in health concerns,advancements in technology and innovations, and strict environmental protection guidelines have increased the use of lightweight, high barrier plastic packaging products such as spout pouches that are bio degradable and cost efficient.The demand for stand-up pouches with reclosability features from emerging markets such as China and India is growing. In 2016, APAC witnessed massive growth in the demand for stand-up pouches from the food and beverage sector.

CFRPs are high-strength and lightweight composite materials that contain a matrix, which is generally a polymer resin, and carbon fiber, a reinforcement material. Epoxy is the most commonly used polymer resin for manufacturing CFRPs. However, other polymers such as polyester, vinyl ester, or nylon are also used as reinforcement matrices. The properties of these plastics depend on the structure of the carbon fiber and that of the binding matrix (resin) material. Silica, rubber, and nanotubes are also used for reinforcement. The reinforcing phase is either in continuous or discontinuous form.

Injection molding is the most commonly used manufacturing process for the fabrication of plastic parts. Injection molding is used to manufacture a wide variety of products, which vary considerably in their dimensions, complex structures, and end-use applications. The injection molding is done by an injection molding machine and requires plastic and the typical raw material, and a shaping mold. The molding machine melts the plastic, which is then injected into the mold, where it cools and solidifies into the final part.
