- Polystyrene (PS) and high-impact polystyrene (HIPS)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- High- and low-density polyethylene (HDPE/LDPE)
- Polyethylene terephthalate (PET)
- Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
- Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and other acrylates
- Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)
- Polycarbonate
- Other miscellaneous resins
The market for the above resins has been studied in detail, with the global and regional markets analyzed in the following pages.
Thermoformed plastics find wide application in the following major fields:
- Food packaging products
