Global Bioplastics & Biopolymers Market Overview

Bioplastics and Biopolymers are known as a kind of plastics and polymers which are obtained from renewable biomass source such as vegetable oils & fats and starch corn. It is a technology that has an intrinsic network, home automation system, and intelligent control system as its basic components. This technology is fortified with digital devices, home appliances, and other components that are interrelated and are retrieved from a far off location with the help of a smart gadget.

Global Bioplastics & Biopolymers Market Drivers & Restraints

Growing packaging end-use industry leads to an increasing demand for bioplastics & biopolymers

Bioplastics and particularly biodegradable bioplastics, have growing demand to substitute conventional plastics in order to address environmental concerns. Bioplastics use is growing in applications such as bottles, clamshell cartons, films, mulch films, carrier bags, waste collection bags, and food service-ware. Packaging is one of the end-use industries that lead the bioplastics & biopolymers market.

Governments focus on green procurement policies and rules to increase the demand for bioplastics & biopolymers

Increasing need to decrease the dependency on conventional fossil fuels is driving the demand for bio-based products. This is also attributed due to new regulations and policies implemented and undertaken by the government bodies across the globe. These rules and regulations involves banning or implementing additional surcharges on the utilization of conventional plastics in applications, such as packaging materials, shopping bags, and disposables. Further, growing regulations and prohibitions against plastic bags and other plastic items are boosting the market for bioplastics & biopolymers across the globe.

However, high price of bioplastics in comparison to conventional plastics is restraining growth of the target market. Moreover, conventional plastics are better in performance than Bioplastic, thus limiting growth of the target market.
