Published: Jul 2023 | Report Code: OMR2022627 | Category : Packaging | Delivery Format: /

The global bioplastic packaging market is projected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2020-2026). The packaging is one of the vital industries that demands various types of plastics and products for packaging purposes. Bioplastic packaging acts as the most suitable alternative to the plastics packaging products. The key factors that drive the growth of the bioplastic packaging industry include the rising demands to reduce plastic waste from across the globe. Various government initiatives and policies are implemented to replace plastics with a better alternative that causes less pollution when compared. Besides, the inclination of the consumers towards the use of environmentally friendly products is further estimated to accelerate the growth of the global bioplastics packaging market during the forecast period.

Moreover, amongst the end-use industries of the global bioplastic packaging market, the food & beverage industry is considered to be one of the leading end-user industries in the bioplastics packaging market owing to the increased reluctance towards the plastic packaging products. Plastic-based products are associated with a high risk of contamination owing to which the food & beverage industry is turning towards bioplastic packaging products. Further, growing consumer preference for organic and natural polymers in food packaging is also accelerating the adoption rate of these bioplastic packaging solutions in the food & beverage sector. Such aforementioned factors are substantially contributing towards the market growth over the forecast period.

Segmental Outlook

The global biosimilar market is segmented on the basis of type, packaging type, and end-user industry. Based on the type, the market has been segmented into biodegradable plastics and non- biodegradable plastics. The biodegradable plastics segment is further sectioned into starch-based, polylactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), polyester, and cellulose derivatives. The non-biodegradable plastics segment is further sectioned into bio-polyethylene terephthalate (PET), bio-polyethylene, bio-polyamides, bio-poly trimethylene terephthalate, and other non-biodegradable plastics. Based on the packaging type, the market is segmented into rigid packaging and flexible packaging. Based on the end-user industry, the market is segmented into food & beverage, pharmaceutical, personal care, and others.

Flexible Packaging Segment to Register Significant Growth in the Market

Amongst the packaging type segment of the market, the flexible packaging segment is projected to hold a significant share in the market over the forecast period. The segmental growth of the market is attributed to the increased demand for flexible packing options from a wide variety of industries. Besides, consumers also prefer flexible packaged products owing to their benefits such as convenient, easily disposable as well as the availability of biodegradable flexible packaging products. Flexible packaging products can also be refilled as well as can be changed into any desired shape. Flexible packaging also offers ease and convenience to the customers in their fast-paced lifestyles and enables the enhanced printing technology that allows the manufacturers to achieve a strong brand presence. Hence, owing to the several benefits offered by flexible packaging, the segment is likely to gain traction over the forecast period.

Regional Outlook

The global bioplastic packaging market is geographically segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World. North America is projected to hold a significant share owing to the presence of the major key players in the market and intensive R&D activities performed by them in order to thrive in the surging bioplastic packaging industry. Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to grow significantly owing to the several government initiatives regarding the waste management across economies such as China, India, and Japan. Additionally, the European bioplastic packaging market is primarily driven by the presence of several supportive environmental protection initiatives and the incentivization of bioplastic packaging by several countries in Europe. Hence, such aforementioned factors are likely to drive the regional bioplastic packaging market growth over the forecast period.
