About Bioplastics Markets
Bioplastics - Poised for next level of Growth - with New Applications & Innovations!
The road ahead for the Bioplastics sector looks set to be an exciting one!
Global demand for bioplastics continues to grow by leaps and bounds, as new applications and innovations catch the interest of "green" conscious end-users. Asia is not far behind.
Pira International reported that Global demand for bioplastic packaging is forecast to reach 884,000 tons by 2020. This translates to a compound annual growth rate of 24.9% from 2010-15 slowing to a CAGR of 18.3% in the five years to 2020. According to the study, a new breed of bioplastics will be major drivers as packaging market demand gradually shifts from biodegradable and compostable polymers towards biopackaging based on renewable and sustainable materials.
Recently implemented regulations are also compelling companies to reduce their carbon footprint, making bioplastics a logical choice.
But in order to realise the investment opportunities in emerging bioplastics markets in Asia, it is essential for producers to first address concerns regarding supply capacities and sustainability.
