The global Biopolymers & Bioplastics market size is projected to reach approximately USD 29.77 Billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 20.7% from 2022 to 2032. Plastic may be molded and created from chemical compounds produced by or derived from microorganisms, such as bacteria or genetically altered plants. Thermoplastics derived from bio-based substances including sugar, starch, and seaweed are known as bioplastics. Biopolymers and bioplastics are widely used in the packaging sector. As a result, bio-based raw materials including starch and vegetable crop waste byproducts are employed to adhere to strict governmental environmental standards. So, compared to typical plastic product manufacturing businesses, product quality is inferior in this sector. Food items may be kept for extended periods without refrigeration and yet retain their chemical qualities when stored in bio-plastics.
COVID-18 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic had resulted in strict border controls, and a temporary lockdown, forcing big businesses, governments, and the plastics industry to replenish supply chains. The COVID-19 pandemic is having a significant impact on the social and financial sectors across the world, and all major businesses are suffering difficulties. The coronavirus pandemic has had an uneven effect on the bio-based industry. While some businesses are helping with technical solutions to stop the epidemic, others seem to be witnessing an increase in demand for biodegradable takeout containers.
Biopolymers & Bioplastics market Dynamics
The market for bioplastics and biopolymers is primarily driven by increasing consumer demand for plastic convenience and quality food products, rising urban population, which increases food adoption, rising processed or stored food and packaged food consumption for consumers, growing disposable income of eatable food, and multifunctionality of packaging.
Drivers:
⮚     Growing consumer demand for plastic convenience products
The increasing consumer demand for plastic convenience products is the primary driver of market growth. The advantages of biopolymers and bioplastics over traditional plastics, such as their renewable nature and biodegradability, are also expected to contribute to market growth. In addition, the growing awareness of the environmental impacts of traditional plastics is expected to drive consumer preference for biopolymers and bioplastics.
Restraint:
- The high cost of bioplastics in comparison to traditional plastic
Bioplastics are made from renewable resources, such as corn starch, and are therefore more environmentally friendly than traditional plastics, which are made from fossil fuels. However, bioplastics are generally more expensive than traditional plastics, which hinders the growth of the bioplastics market.
Opportunity:
⮚     The introduction of new bioplastics and biopolymers product developments
The introduction of new bioplastics and biopolymers product developments creates a prodigious opportunity to market. With the help of new technology, these product developments can be used in many industries and sectors. They are not only eco-friendly but also have the potential to replace traditional plastics and polymers. This can help in reducing the overall environmental impact of the manufacturing process.
