Polyethylene terephthalate (pet) was the largest segment with a revenue share of 38.29% in 2023. Horizon Databook has segmented the Japan recycled ocean plastics market based on high-density polyethylene (hdpe), low-density polyethylene (ldpe), polypropylene (pp), polyethylene terephthalate (pet), polystyrene (ps), polyvinyl chloride (pvc) covering the revenue growth of each sub-segment from 2019 to 2030.
Japan is at the forefront of ocean plastic recycling in Asia Pacific. The adoption of recycled plastics for producing various consumer goods is contributing to the growth of recycled ocean plastics market in the country. According to Plastic Waste Management Institute (PMMI), the country’s plastic recycling rate is 87%, the highest in Asia Pacific. The most common plastic waste generated in the country includes polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
The country recycles 23% of the plastic waste through mechanical recycling, 4% through chemical recycling, and the rest through thermal recycling by burning the plastic to produce energy. According to The Council of PET Bottle Recycling, 94% of all polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles bought in Japan In 2022 were gathered and 86% of the total were recycled. In comparison, the recycling rate was just 42.7% in Europe; in the U.S., the figure was much lower only reaching 18%.
In September 2023, MOL and Idemitsu Kosan initiated a joint demonstration test, which was focused on recycling marine plastic waste. The test involved the use of a device, namely Seabin to collect marine debris at the Hiroshima Municipal Pier. This collected waste was then recycled into oil by Chemical Recycle Japan Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Idemitsu Kosan. This test aimed to assess the viability of the generated oil as a raw material for use in petrochemical products and fuel oils.
