Plastics Demand Estimate — Updated September 2025

Essential for those seeking to understand overall trends in the plastics industry, the demand estimates for plastics products include monthly and year-over-year changes in dollar values, presented in both current and inflation-adjusted terms.

Due to the ongoing government shutdown, PLASTICS is unable to provide demand estimates beyond July 2025 until the Census Bureau publishes the requisite data. Thank you for your patience.
