Biodegradable Plastic Market Growth & Trends

Single-use plastics have been extensively used in food packaging, as well as in manufacturing straws, water bottles, and carry bags. However, they are generally disposed off haphazardly, and their accumulation leads to environmental degradation. According to EARTHDAY.ORG, human beings use 1.2 million plastic bottles every minute; additionally, around 50% of the annual worldwide plastic production is done keeping single-use products in mind, while 91% of the plastic used is not recycled. As a result, the promotion of biodegradable plastics in place of conventional ones has been going on at full swing across many leading nations, with eco-conscious consumers willing to pay a higher amount for these products. Biodegradable plastics can be prepared from a variety of raw materials that include starch, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), polylactic acid (PLA), and polybutylene succinate (PBS), among others. Plastics made from these products are used extensively across packaging and consumer goods applications.

Conventional plastic has become a nuisance for land and marine ecosystems, as its decomposition takes hundreds of years, which has resulted in the swift banning of products predominantly in North America and Europe. For instance, the European Commission implemented restrictions on the use of certain single-use plastic items, beginning on the 3rd of July, 2021. These include cutlery, balloon sticks, plastic plates, and straws, as well as food and beverage containers prepared from EPS (expanded polystyrene). In tune with these regulations, notable industry players have been making significant investments in R&D activities to enhance product quality and improve its decomposition properties. However, the industry is also facing a notable challenge in the form of difficulties in the decomposition process due to issues in segregation from conventional plastics, as they have no distinct differences. Moreover, certain biodegradable plastics can only decompose in a specific environment, while some products, during decomposition, release greenhouse gases.
