Key Findings of the Market Report
- The need for biodegradable plastics is being driven by governments throughout the world pushing biodegradable polymers in response to the rise in single-use plastic waste.
- Biodegradable polymers are being adopted as a solution to the global problem of plastic pollution.
- Bio-based waste and conventional garbage may be recycled together, making industrial composting a more practical choice for managing waste.
- For the sustainable use of resources and the environment, biodegradable product waste management systems must be effective.
- Biodegradable plastics are versatile enough to be recycled mechanically and organically.
- Turning waste biodegradable plastic into fuel through thermochemical and biological processes is becoming more and more popular as a sustainable waste management technique.
Market Trends for Plastics
- Renewable resources like crops, plants, or other biological components are the source of bio-based plastics. Bio-based plastics have an advantage over conventional plastics in that they are more sustainable and kinder to the environment. Traditional plastics are usually manufactured from fossil fuels.
- A popular feedstock for the manufacturing of bio-based plastics is sugarcane, specifically the bio-ethylene kind of this material. Polyethylene is a common material that are produced from bio-ethylene. Bioethanol derived from sugarcane is a vital component used to produce bio-ethylene.
Global Market for Plastics: Regional Outlook
- The Asia Pacific region dominates the global landscape for a number of reasons. Rapid development and urbanization have occurred in China and India. The need for plastics has grown across a number of industries, including consumer products, automotive, packaging, and construction.
- A sizable and developing middle class with rising spending power drives the demand for commodities that primarily rely on plastics, such as consumer goods, packaging materials, and vehicles.
- Asia Pacific is becoming the center of global manufacturing for many different sectors. The infrastructure and manufacturing capacity of the area support the manufacture and use of plastics in a variety of applications.
