The technology in bio-plastic has undergone significant change in recent years, from PLA (polylactic acid) to PHAs (polyhydroxyalkanoates) based bioplastic. The rising wave of new technologies such as biodegradable bio-plastics are creating significant potential in packaging and agriculture and horticulture applications due to growing environmental concerns and increasing awareness of the economic & ecological viability of using bioplastics.
In agrochemical market, various technologies such as biodegradable and non-biodegradable bioplastics are used in the packaging, textile, agriculture and horticulture, automotive, electronics, and building and construction applications. Improvement in scope of bio-plastics across end-user industries, shift in consumer preference toward eco-friendly plastic products, and rising use in food packaging and compostable bag applications are creating new opportunities for various bio-plastic technologies.
Lucintel, a leading global management consulting and market research firm with over 1,000 clients worldwide, has analyzed the technologies used in bio-plastic market and has now published a comprehensive research report entitled "Technology Landscape, Trends and Opportunities in the Bio-plastic Market".
