Equiplast, in collaboration with the Spanish Plastics Centre (CEP), has carried out this study which compiles an exhaustive assessment of the importance of the plastics industry as a transversal production sector, with the capacity to be applied to multiple activities and which acts as a lever and driving force behind their competitiveness.

The research quantifies, categorises and analyses the economic magnitudes of more than 3,700 companies, corresponding to the main production segments of the sector linked to the manufacture, transformation and valorisation of plastic products in Spain.

The study concluded with a look at the future and the major lines of development on which they are working and how the plastics sector in Spain can capture the most strategic opportunities for its main sectors of application and, in turn, continue to transform itself, become more competitive and improve its environmental impact and sustainability metrics.
