Europe Bioplastic Packaging Market Key Impacting Factors

Published: Oct 2020

The European bioplastic packaging market is anticipated to grow significantly over the forecast period (2020-2026). The key factors that enhance the growth of the market include the increased environmental concerns amongst the people in the region. There has been a substantial rise in the demand for green packaging products including bioplastics packaging and others in the region. 

As per the European Bioplastics, major retailers such as Aldi, Rossmann, Coop, and Carrefour have started using carrier bags made from bioplastics. Moreover, as per the european-bioplastics.org, more than 50% of goods are packaged in plastic that impacts the environment on a large scale. Hence, there is an increased need to curb down the use of single-use plastics and incentivize the use of bioplastics for packaging. This further drives the growth of the market over the forecast period.

Besides, the market is also poised to grow due to major investments by the key players. For instance, in December 2019, Stora Enso invested nearly $10.6 million for the development of a production plant for the manufacturing of bio-based plastics as a barrier in transparent packaging. ?In November 2019, Novamont declared an $11.7 million investment program for the diversification and expansion of its production plant in Italy. The expansion of its production plant is likely to increase the production of fifth-generation MATER-BI (biodegradable and compostable bioplastics) and a series of products with oxygen and carbon dioxide barrier properties for the food packaging sector.
