Introduction:

Bioplastics are a type of plastic manufactured from biomass sources such as vegetable oils and certain starches and are also called biobased plastic. They are commonly used for insulation, as a packaging material and in crockery and food packaging. The bioplastic industry has high potential for growth if the focus is not just the replacement of current plastic applications but origination of newer properties and newer applications as well.

Global Bioplastics Market Size & Growth:

The global bioplastics market was valued at $XX Billion in 2018 and is estimated to reach $XX Billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of around X.XX% during the forecast period. Rising the adoption of biodegradable products and expanding the reach of bioplastics across end-user industries are driving growth in the demand for bioplastics. However, to a certain extent high production costs and comparatively limited performance standards compared with traditional plastics hamper the growth of the bioplastics market. Rising population and urbanization coupled with the increasing awareness regarding health-issues in emerging economies of Asia Pacific are likely to assist end-use industries, which in turn is expected to escalate the demand for bioplastics over the forecast period. Moreover, increasing product demand in the packaging industry will drive the market further.

Global Bioplastics Market Segments Share:

The global bioplastics market is segregated on the basis of product, application, and geography. By product type, the bioplastics market is segmented into biodegradable and non-biodegradable bioplastics. Non-biodegradable plastics segment led the market owing to the high demand for electronic equipment, automotive housings, and consumer goods, such as carry bags, cups, films, and bottles. Non-biodegradable bioplastics are further bifurcated into polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyamide, and polytrimethylene terephthalate.

Based on application, the bioplastics market is bifurcated into packaging, agriculture, consumer goods, textiles, automotive & transportation, building & construction, others. The packaging application led the market owing to Increasing utilization of bioplastics to produce bags for compost, agricultural foils, nursery products, toys, and textiles is the key factor responsible for the segment growth.

Based on region, Europe led the global market attributed to the factors, such as the presence of stringent governmental laws pertaining to single-use plastics, increasing environmental concerns, and rising R&D investments by private as well as public organizations. Furthermore, some of the prominent players in the region are taking initiatives to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic by providing their products.

North America is also estimated to witness significant growth by the growing demand from the packaging industry in countries, such as U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Rising environmental concerns and a global attempt to reduce pollution is propelling the demand for biodegradable plastics in the packaging sector across the region.
