MAY - 20216 MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY INSIGHTSPlastics remain the most commonly used chemical compound in human life. Thanks to their exclusive properties, the plastic industry contributes to almost every daily requirement of a human being, whether it is clothing, housing, household items, agriculture, medical appliances, automobiles, packaging, electronics and electrical items, and so on. Along with the physical properties, their low cost and ease of manufacturing make plastics the most favored raw material across a wide range of industries today. Plastics are thus spotted in a multitude of products of different scales, from paperclips to spacecraft.Notably, sustainability will continue to be the major trend in the domain as original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are assuming more responsibility by working alongside partners that are committed to low or zero-waste initiatives and responsible recycling. As a result, bio-resins, eco-friendly plastic additives, and pro-degradant concentrates (PDC) are gaining more traction in the domain, and they would continue to do so in the coming years as well. Leading-edge technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, are also playing a pivotal role in that regard. While AI is driving efficiency and enhancing productivity across a range of functions in the industry, it is simultaneously aiding companies in waste reduction and management, thereby contributing to a more sustainable future.In this edition of Manufacturing Technology Insights, we bring you the story of some of the most promising plastic tech solution providers and service companies that deliver the best outcomes for their clients.
