[ 176 + Pages Research Report ]Biodegradable Plastic Packaging Market to surpass USD 31.2 billion by 2031 from USD 3.44 billion in 2021 at a CAGR of 9.49% in the coming years, i.e., 2021-31.

Product Overview
“Biodegradable” can be defined as the capability of things to get fragmented (decomposed) by the action of micro-organisms such as bacteria or fungi biological (in the presence or in absence of oxygen) while getting integrated into the natural environment. There’s no ecological harm during the process. Biodegradable plastic is plastic that is designed to break up when exposed to the existence of microorganisms, it is usually made from natural byproducts, and follows rigorously controlled circumstances of temperature and humidity in industrial environments.

Market Highlights
Global Biodegradable Plastic Packaging to surpass USD 31.2 billion by 2031 from USD 3.44 billion in 2021 at a CAGR of 9.49% in the coming years, i.e., 2021-31. Growing demand for biodegradable plastics from several end-use segments, severe regulatory & sustainability mandates, and rising issues for the environment is driving the market for biodegradable plastics.





Global Aroma chemicals: Segments
Organic segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2021-310

Based on Type, global Biodegradable Plastic Packaging Market is segmented into Organic and Conventional. Among the type segments, the organic segment is predictable to hold the majority revenue share in the market and is expected to continue during the forecast years. Organic Biodegradable Plastic Packaging is an extremely concentrated aromatic liquid obtained through the steam distillation of roots and rhizomes. It is an important oil produced by steam distillation from dried rootstock followed by hydro distillation for several hours, which results in a good yield (approximately 25%) of clear to pale yellow colored oil with a fresh woody-earthy smell used as a perfume ingredient.

Pharmaceutical segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2021-31

Based on Application, global Biodegradable Plastic Packaging Market fragmented into Packaging, Consumer Goods, Textile, Agriculture & Horticulture, Pharmaceutical, and Others. pharmaceutical segment is expected to measure the highest share during the forecast year. The pharmaceutical industry uses Biodegradable Plastic Packaging for formulating concoctions aimed at treating skin diseases, averting stretch marks, firming up the central nervous system, and overcoming conditions such as depression, anxiety, stress, insomnia, nervousness, and tension. It is also used as an aphrodisiac, as a cicatrizant (for the eradication of scars), and as a relieving embrocation for rheumatism, lumbago, sprains, and headaches.



Market Dynamics
Drivers

Changing consumer preference toward eco-friendly plastic

Improving consumer awareness about sustainable plastic services and increasing efforts to reduce the use of non-biodegradable conventional plastics contribute to the market growth of biodegradable plastics. Conventionally used petroleum-based plastics take decades to decompose or degrade and lay in the landfills for a long period. Biodegradable plastics break down faster when they are discarded and are absorbed back into the natural system. Furthermore, the rate of decomposition of biodegradable plastics by the activities of microorganisms is much higher than that of traditional plastics.

Development of new applications

With the increasing focus on sustainability and favorable government rules for green procurement policies, biodegradable plastic manufacturers have important opportunities in the new end-use industries such as electronics, medical, and automotive. The manufacturers are investing heavily in R&D activities for the application of biodegradable plastics in various applications in the medical industry, such as stitching materials, screws, and implants. Biodegradable plastics such as PLA and bio-PBS are used for manufacturing medical devices & equipment.

Restraint
High cost

The higher cost of biodegradable plastics as compared to traditional polymers restrains the market's growth in many application segments. The production cost of biodegradable plastics is 40-80% higher than that of conventional plastics. This is majorly because of the high polymerization price of biodegradable plastics as most of the processes are still in the development stage and hence, have not achieved economies of scale.
