Plastics are a broad category of synthetic or semi-synthetic materials that contain polymers as a primary component. Plastics can be moulded, extruded, or pressed into solid objects of diverse shapes due to their fluidity.
This adaptability, along with a variety of other features such as lightweight, durability, flexibility, and low cost of production, has led to its widespread application. Plastics are frequently manufactured using human industrial systems.
The majority of current plastics are created from fossil fuel-based compounds such as natural gas or petroleum; however, recent industrial technologies utilise renewable material alternatives such as corn or cotton derivatives.
Plastics are created through the polymerisation or polycondensation of natural elements such as cellulose, coal, natural gas, salt, and crude oil.
Natural, organic resources such as cellulose, coal, natural gas, salt, and, of course, crude oil are used to make plastics. The increasing rate of plastic manufacture causes issues in many aspects of our civilization.
It contributes to waste and pollution problems, has an influence on our health, and endangers our oceans and species.
The Cameroon Plastics Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Cameroon has become dependent on plastics market in recent decades due to the benefits it brings to society, such as food and water preservation, packaging, and so on.
The tactics utilised by countries around the world were evaluated using an examination of new approaches to single-use plastics management (SuPM) based on a description of successful intervention criteria.
It was discovered that the most promising remedies being implemented in several countries throughout the world have proven to be very successful in Rwanda (complete ban), Ireland (Irish PlasTax), and Australia (voluntary initiatives).
These approaches were recommended to be taken and employed concurrently in order to obtain the desired results while finding opportunities for SuPM interventions in Cameroon.
