The future of the European injection moulding industry

According to a new AMI report, the value of the European plastics injection moulding industry in 2014 was 11% higher than its pre-crisis value: although the volume of polymer processed was about 7% lower than in 2007. Much of the value increase is associated with higher raw material costs but the industry has striven to maximise the potential of new and added value opportunities.
The packaging sector remains by far the largest market in terms of polymer volume consumed, particularly because it includes demand for PET preforms. The packaging sector is almost equally important across every country because it typically serves local consumer demand (Press Release AMI Consulting, 3 February 2015).
