Factors Affecting the Growth of the Injection Molded Plastics Industry:   

• Increasing Demand Across End-Use Industries:

Injection molded plastics are widely used in a variety of fields including automotive, packaging, healthcare, electronics, consumer products, building and many other fields. Through injection molding, plastics can be easily integrated into many components and products in these industries which can include car seats, electronic shrink wrap, bundling cans and even medical devices. In addition, sectors such as automotive and aerospace have seen a greater focus on lightweighting strategies for reducing emissions, improved fuel economy and improved performance. Lightweighting is another benefit of injection molded plastics as it gives manufacturers the opportunity to reduce the weight of the product compared to traditional product materials such as metal – all of this can be accomplished without any degradation in the strength or performance of the item.

• Product Innovation and Varieties:

Advances in injection molding machines and equipment have greatly enhanced the performance of injection molding with respect to speed, accuracy and efficiency. The widespread use of high performance hydraulic and pneumatics control, servos, robots, smart machinery through computers means increased cycle times, shaft tolerances and throughput, resulting in overall productivity and reductions in manufacturing costs. Additionally, robotics and automated assembly techniques are adopted to meet the requirement of injection molding operations, reduce labor costs and ensure standardized quality. Other tasks such as part removal, inspection for quality and packaging are also performed by robotic systems to ensure that the system runs virtually with limited interruptions.

• Expansion of Packaging Industry:

The packaging industry is enjoying continuous growth, growth factors include population growth, increased urbanization, changes in consumers' behavior and increased e-commerce activities. While the variety and sales of packaged foods, beverages, pharmaceuticals, personal care products and other consumer goods are constantly growing, the same can be said for the need for convenient and economical methods of packaging. However, injection molding plastics gives an added advantage of flexibility and the ability to make small variations which is very important in packing industries. Key players can produce a wide range of packaging products including bottles, containers, caps, closures, trays and blister packs with different shapes, sizes, colors and features to meet the specific needs of different products and brands.
