Global Biodegradable Plastic Market is expected to reach US$ 14.43 Billion by 2030, according to the publisher. Biodegradable plastics degrade via microbial action, gaining popularity through extensive R&D. Industries invest in sustainable production with renewable resources for growth. Market analysis predicts future trends using system dynamics modeling, projecting global production capacity by 2030. Public awareness of plastic pollution drives the demand for improved plastic management, boosting bio-based and biodegradable plastic usage. Governments are enacting legislation to limit single-use plastics and support eco-friendly alternatives. This, along with customers' willingness to spend extra for biodegradable plastics, is driving market expansion. Bioplastics are finding applications in diverse sectors like packaging, water, beverages, insulation materials, and specialty materials, offering promising opportunities for sustainable solutions globally.
Moreover, Starch has gained popularity as a material for developing biodegradable plastics due to its affordability and widespread availability compared to other natural polymers. However, starch has certain limitations, such as poor water resistance and low strength, which necessitate blending with other polymers to achieve desired mechanical properties. The commercial development of starch blends has progressed through different stages. The aim was to enhance degradability and reduce costs. These starch blends are only partially biodegradable. Currently, starch blends primarily involve blending thermoplastic starch (TPS) with other biodegradable plastics. Partially biodegradable starch blends, marketed as ""biodegradable starch plastic,"" remain widespread in multiple countries. These starch-based polymers serve as a sustainable substitute for traditional plastics in the automotive, packaging, and agricultural industries. With their biodegradability and reduced environmental impact, they contribute to a greener approach.
The future of the French biodegradable plastic market looks promising, with upcoming trends and advancements expected to shape the landscape.
