Biodegradable bioplastics & biopolymers types will account for the major share of the market in terms of value

Biodegradable are the largest type segment in terms of value during the forecast period. Biodegradable polymers are high molecular weight compounds that decompose naturally in the environment through bacteria and other microorganisms during a span of time. The process produces natural byproducts, such as biomass, water, gases, and inorganic salts. Biodegradable polymers are made from renewable sources such as corn oil, starch, orange peels, and plant materials and deteriorate into natural by-products. The growing concerns related to environmental pollution and non-renewable finite petroleum resources are leading to the increasing use of biodegradable bioplastics & biopolymers.

In terms of value, the packaging segment is projected to account for the largest share of the bioplastics & biopolymers market, by end-use industry, during the forecast period.

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