Global Biopolymers Market: Overview

Polymers and plastics are usually utilized in packaging and coating applications. Around 80 - 85% polymeric materials are generated from the petroleum sector. The growing use of plastics is putting stress on the environment with its growing carbon footprint owing to greenhouse gas production, along with other aspects such as soil and water pollution. Thus, growing need for eco-friendly alternatives is increasing. The increasing stress towards sustainable growth is projected to make a prospect for bio-based polymers and plastics in the coming few years. Governments are supporting and encouraging the usage of biodegradable polymers over conventional polymers to decrease carbon footprint. Some of the automotive companies are now initiating for the utilization of the biopolymers; for example, the Ford Motor Company is making use of biopolymers for their interior applications.

Global Biopolymers Market: Growth Factors

Partial accessibility of petroleum resources, changeability in crude oil prices, and increasing awareness towards ecological issues are key aspects driving the expansion of the biopolymers market in the coming future. Changing ecological regulations on carbon emissions and political conditions and the restrictions on the usage of plastic are also expected to drive the global biopolymers market in the next few years. In spite of being a recessed market, the market is anticipated to experience the considerable growth rate in the coming future. Furthermore, raw materials needed in the production of biopolymers are acquired from agricultural wastes. Thus biopolymer manufacture can be considered as a sustainable substitute in waste managing. Biopolymers can also help in decreasing carbon dioxide production. Due to these benefits, there is an increasing interest in biopolymer production which will subsequently propel the expansion of the global biopolymers market in the coming years.
