Biodegradable Plastics Market Definition

Biodegradable plastics are made from petrochemicals that contain biodegradable additives and are degraded into carbon dioxide, water, and biomass by microorganisms. The biodegradable plastics are used in organic waste collection and diversion, food packaging, the agricultural and horticultural sectors, and disposable tableware. These can be used in packing materials, injection-molded products, and others.

The main types of biodegradable plastics on the market are polylactic acid (PLA), polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), polybutylene succinate (PBS), polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), starch blends, and others. Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a thermoplastic biopolymer and its cross-linking of chains gives rise to biodegradable plastic sheets that serve as the basis for the production of numerous non-polluting plastic products. Some of the main end users in the biodegradable plastics market include packaging, agriculture, consumer goods, and other end users.

Biodegradable Plastics Market Segmentation

The biodegradable plastics market covered in this report is segmented –

1) By Type: Polylactic Acid (PLA), Polybutylene Adipate Terephthalate (PBAT), Polybutylene Succinate (PBS), PHA (Polyhydroxyalkanoates), Starch Blends, Other Types

2) By End User: Packaging, Agriculture, Consumer Goods, Others

Global Biodegradable Plastics Market Size 2023 to 2028: Graph

Biodegradable Plastics Market Size 2024 And Growth Rate

The biodegradable plastics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $5.8 billion in 2023 to $6.83 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing concerns for the environment, increasing use of biodegradable plastic and emerging markets growth.

Biodegradable Plastics Market Growth Forecast

The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to new product launches, a rise in environmental awareness and government initiatives. Major trends in the forecast period include product innovation, integrating antimicrobial technology in biodegradable polymers, use of biodegradable plastics lightweighting, increasing mergers and acquisitions, use of artificial intelligence and upcycled packaging materials.

Biodegradable Plastics Market Driver: Rising Environmental Concerns Propel Growth In The Biodegradable Plastics Market

Growth in concerns for the environment is expected to increase the growth of the biodegradable plastics market. The major growing concern for the environment is plastics. The increase in the use of plastics is a growing concern for the environment. In January 2021, according to the data published by the European Environment Agency, the COVID-19 pandemic caused changes in the consumption, waste, and production of plastics. A recent BCG survey involving 3,000 people across eight countries found that in the wake of the pandemic, people were now more concerned about addressing environmental challenges and were committed to changing their own behaviors to advance sustainability. Almost 40% of respondents said they plan to engage in more sustainable behavior in the future. Therefore, growth in concerns for the environment is expected to drive the biodegradable plastics market.

Biodegradable Plastics Market Driver: Government Initiatives Propel Development Of Bioplastics, Driving Biodegradable Plastic Market Growth

Government initiatives for the development of bioplastics are expected to drive the biodegradable plastic market in the forecast period. For instance, in August 2021, the Indian Government decided to ban most single-use plastics by July 2022 to reduce pollution and lessen its negative effects on the environment. Bioplastic-focused companies have also received frequent funding from government institutions keen to promote the use of more environmentally friendly plastics. These initiatives are expected to continue in the forecast period thus supporting the growth of the market.

Global Biodegradable Plastics Market Trend: Innovative Biodegradable Plastic Products Emerge As Key Trend In Market

Product innovations are a key trend gaining popularity in the biodegradable plastics market. Many organizations are launching innovative products in biodegradable plastics, which are cost-effective and sustainable. For example, in July 2021, the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) based in India launched biodegradable packaging products that are manufactured from biodegradable plant-based food-grade materials. They are available in a water-resistant form and can be degraded in three months. These packaging bags are an ocean-safe alternative to single-use plastics and are cost-effective and sustainable.

Global Biodegradable Plastics Market Trend: AI Revolutionizes Biodegradable Plastics Manufacturing For Sustainability

Companies in the biodegradable plastics market are leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) to eliminate plastic waste from their manufacturing processes. Artificial intelligence and machine learning have accelerated the design of materials, such as plastics, that disintegrate fast without affecting the environment and super-strong, lightweight plastics for satellites and aircraft that will eventually replace metals in usage. AI can eliminate waste from design processes by using engineering data and detecting repetitive and wasteful development cycles. It can streamline packaging, making that packaging as sustainable as possible. It can also increase the use of biodegradable or recyclable materials and cut down shipping costs by optimizing dimensions and weight in packages. For instance, French cosmetics company L’Oréal, is using AI to ensure that the plastic packaging it uses is either recycled or bio-based by 2030. The company is using predictive tools to estimate the performance of product and packaging designs faster and more accurately, which allows the company to reduce the amount of materials needed in making products and ensures that each product is as sustainable as possible.

Biodegradable Plastics Market Merger And Acquisition: Novamont Strengthens Market Presence With Acquisition Of Biobag Group
