Summary

Biodegradable Plastics market to surpass USD 12.62 billion by 2030 from USD 3.83 billion in 2020 at a CAGR of 12.67% in the coming years, i.e., 2021-30.

Product Overview
Biodegradable plastics are also known as eco-friendly plastics with no adverse impact on the environment. It degrades in a reasonable amount of time in natural base compounds. As a result, biodegradable plastic is composed up of molecules that can degrade naturally due to the action of microorganisms. Polylactic acid (PLA), Polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), Polybutylene Succinate (PBS), Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), and starch blends are some of the most common biodegradable plastics.

Market Highlights
Biodegradable Plastics market is expected to project a notable CAGR of 12.67% in 2030
One of the main reasons driving the market's growth is governments banning the use of single-use plastics, as well as growing public awareness of the negative impacts of plastic waste. Increased usage of biodegradable plastics in packaging and agriculture is also expected to contribute to market development.



Biodegradable Plastics Market: Segments
Starch Blends segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2020-30
Biodegradable Plastics Market is segmented by Type PLA, Starch Blends, Biodegradable Polyesters, PHA, Others Among these the starch-based segment is expected to lead the market in terms of revenue and volume throughout the forecast period. End-use sectors such as packaging, cars, and agriculture utilize starch-based plastics.

Packaging and bags segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2020-30
Biodegradable Plastics market is segmented by Application into Packaging & Bags, Consumer Goods, Agriculture & Horticulture, Textile, Others. Among these Packaging and bags is the largest and fastest-growing biodegradable plastics end-use industry. Diaper banking, adult incontinence products, and landfill covers are some of the emerging biodegradable plastics use in the packaging industry. With many new goods on the way, the usage of biodegradable plastics in packaging is anticipated to grow even further.

Market Dynamics
Drivers
Increasing use of biodegradable plastic in automotive industry
Due to a growing need for lightweight materials, the automobile industry has been compelled to abandon petroleum plastic in favor of biodegradable plastics in order to reduce carbon emissions and preserve the environment. The biodegradable plastics market is projected to increase as a result of the rising usage of biodegradable plastics in the automobile sector.

Government initiatives and public awareness
One of the key factors driving the biodegradable plastics market growth is government restrictions on the use of single-use plastic, along with a growing public awareness of plastic waste's negative impact. Increases in the usage of biodegradable plastics in packaging and agriculture are also predicted to contribute to the industry's growth.

Restraint
Difficulty in decomposing
Despite their environmental benefits, biodegradable plastics have significant drawbacks. Because there is no apparent distinction between conventional and biodegradable plastics, segregation is a major drawback. The presence of conventional plastic in biodegradable plastic landfills might cause decomposition difficulties. Furthermore, not all biodegradable plastics degrade quickly in the natural environment, since they demand a certain moisture and temperature condition. Some biodegradable plastics emit greenhouse gases during decomposition, which is harmful to the environment and restrains market growth.
