When it comes to environmental issues, the increasing amount of plastic waste generated globally is a constant concern. That's why effective management of plastic scrap, including responsible disposal, recycling, and repurposing, is very important for a circular economy and reducing pollution. As we have seen in recent years, plastic scrap has emerged as a key commodity in the global recycling trade. It is because the global demand for recycled plastic across manufacturing sectors (from packaging and textiles to automotive and construction) continues to grow. Recycled plastic reduces the dependency on virgin materials and also reduces the overall environmental footprint of production processes. However, as countries tighten regulations around plastic waste exports and imports, the international trade landscape is evolving to support more transparent, traceable, and sustainable practices. For suppliers and exporters, this presents a great opportunity to connect with a growing network of waste plastic buyers and plastic scrap importers worldwide.
Did you know that over 8 million metric tons of plastic reach the oceans each year? In fact, several reports warn that by 2025, the weight of plastic in the oceans could surpass the total weight of all the fish in them. The truth is that plastic pollution has become one of the most pressing challenges today. At the same time, there’s a growing global demand for plastic scrap, especially recycled plastics, as industries look for more sustainable materials. By turning plastic waste into a valuable commodity, the recycling industry not only helps reduce pollution but also supports the transition to a circular economy, where materials are reused, remanufactured, and kept in use for as long as possible. Let's find out the major factors behind the increasing demand for plastic scrap.
Plastic scrap can be broadly categorized into two types, including industrial scrap (also known as post-industrial resin) and consumer waste (post-consumer plastic). Technically speaking, you will find thousands of different types of plastic. However, these types are grouped into seven plastic categories to make sorting and recycling easier. As a supplier, you should know how to identify different plastics, grades and their recyclability to fulfil the market requirements accurately.
Common Types of Plastic Scrap (by Resin Type):
Different Grades of Plastic Scrap (Based on Purity, Color, and Form):
The plastic scrap trade often overlaps with other recyclable commodities, creating opportunities for exporters working in this sector. Expanding into the following related categories can be more profitable and attract bulk recyclers as well as industrial buyers.
If you're in the trading business, it's important to stay informed about key market insights related to the global plastic scrap trade. Understanding the market size, top importing countries and mixed plastic scrap prices can help you make data-backed decisions. This, in turn, reduces risks, helps you identify new export opportunities, and stay ahead of competitors.

Global trade in plastic scrap is now heavily regulated due to environmental risks. Exporters must comply with the following regulations:
1.Basel Convention:
2. OECD Waste Trade Rules
3. ISRI Specifications
4. REACH (EU)
5. Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)
6. Environmental Permits
7. Packaging & Waste Directives
Here are the most effective methods to find old plastic buyers or scrap plastic importers:
1. What is the price of old plastic per kg?
The price of old plastic varies by type and quality. However, the average plastic scrap price per kg (for HDPE) can range from $0.42 to $0.60 (depending on market and region)
2. What types of plastic scrap are exported?
Most commonly exported plastic scrap includes:
3. What regulations govern plastic scrap export?
Plastic scrap exports are regulated under:
4. How do I find reliable plastic scrap buyers?
You can find scrap or old plastic buyers through:
5. Is it legal to export plastic scrap internationally?
Yes, it is legal to export plastic scrap internationally. But it must comply with the Basel Convention and the importing country’s regulations. Certain types, such as unsorted mixed plastics, may be restricted or need special permission.
6. Which countries import plastic scrap?
Vietnam, Turkey, and China are the biggest importers of plastic scrap.
7. What certifications or documents are needed to export plastic scrap?
Common requirements include a bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, export license, import clearance from the buyer, and sometimes an environmental or inspection certificate.
8. What are the biggest challenges in exporting plastic scrap?
The biggest challenges in exporting plastic scrap include:
9. Can I export mixed plastic scrap?
It’s restricted or banned in many countries under the Basel Convention (2021 update). Most countries only allow sorted, recyclable plastic types with clear processing and end-use documentation.
10. What is the plastic scrap HSN code?
3915 is the plastic scrap HSN code.
According to a new OECD report, global trade in plastic waste and scrap has dropped by about half since 2014. (Full Story: Sustainable Plastics)
