The plastics sector in Morocco is limited to plastics processing industries in rubber and / or plastics. This study shows that the sub-sector of the manufacturing of plastic items has experienced in recent years a significant increase of domestic consumption, production and imports. The impact on employment and the added value is expected. This can be explained by the expansion of the use of plastic works in different fields: construction, packaging, kitchen utensils, carpentry ... However, this sector remains promising if we compare the national per capita consumption per year (6 Kg) compared to that of European countries (Germany: 124 kg / capita / year). In this article, we will first present a basic set of concepts and generalizations about plastics and their industrial applications; then we will present examples of national production and its impact on the economy and finally we conclude with an analysis of the plastics sector in three economic regions according to a study by the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
