The aforementioned factors are anticipated to bolster the market’s growth. New installations and service of machines are what drive the overall recycling vending machine market's revenue growth.

“High cost of recycling vending machines”

The high cost of recycling vending machines and fluctuating raw material prices are anticipated to be barriers to the growth of the Europe recycling vending machine market.

Although machine recycling is effective, it comes at a significant initial cost, usually exceeding US$ 6,000 per machine. Due to these expenses, sole proprietorships frequently lack the funding to acquire and maintain machinery.

In order to promote the widespread availability of vending machines, governments and non-profit organizations have joined up with businesses like TOMRA to develop policies and joint venture programs. Costs are anticipated to decrease as more public and private businesses enter the RVM industry, making it a more appealing substitute for conventional recycling techniques.
