The technology in biodegradable plastics have undergone significant changes in recent years, with traditional petroleum based to advanced bio based plastics. The rising wave of new technologies, such as bio-based and oxo-degradable plastics are creating significant potential in packaging, pharmaceutical, and agriculture applications, to reduce VOC emission, and plastic waste.
In biodegradable plastics market, various technologies, such as oxo-degradable technology, bioplastics or bio-based plastics, and biodegradable plastics from biosphere are used in the packaging, agriculture and horticulture, pharmaceutical, sports and leisure, automotive, construction, and textile applications. Increasing use of biodegradable plastics in packaging, agriculture, and automotive applications, stringent government regulations, and rising awareness about plastic waste are creating new opportunities for various biodegradable plastics technologies.
Lucintel, a leading global management consulting and market research firm with over 1,000 clients worldwide, has analyzed the technologies used in biodegradable plastics market and has now published a comprehensive research report entitled "Technology Landscape, Trends and Opportunities in the Biodegradable Plastics Market" This report analyzes technology maturity, degree of disruption, competitive intensity, market potential and other parameters of various technologies in biodegradable plastics market.
Lucintel study finds that biodegradable plastics technology is forecast to grow at 12% during next five years. Biodegradable plastic is the largest segment of this market and is growing at above average growth. NatureWorks, BASF, Total Corbion PLA, Mitsubishi Chemical, Biome Bioplastics, Plantic Technologies, Bio-On, Danimer Scientific, Novamont, and Toray Industries are among the major players in the biodegradable plastics market.
