Biopolymer packaging refers to the use of biopolymers, which are polymers derived from renewable resources, as materials for packaging applications. These biopolymers are typically derived from sources such as plants, animals, or microorganisms, and they offer several advantages over traditional petroleum-based plastics. The key factors such as cohesive government regulations for bio-based packaging solutions, rising awareness for human well-being and eco-friendly products, and growing research and development activities on biopolymer are anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for the market during forecast period.
Moreover, growing research and development (R&D) activities on biopolymers play a crucial role in supporting the growth of the Biopolymer Packaging Market. In Jan 2020, in a collaborative research project, the Fraunhofer Institute for Microstructure of Materials and Systems and the technical film producer Polifilm Extrusion GmbH are collaborating on engineering biopolymer-based films for food packaging. Chitosan coatings are utilized in this effort to boost the food's resistance to the effects of microbes. Also, in Oct 2019, the multinational food company Nestle from Switzerland launched a new research lab with a focus on packaging waste. It is approaching this difficulty in five stages. The company wants to break new ground with its biopolymer research since these materials can break down in a composting environment and are biodegradable. Additionally, growing food and beverages industry and rising development of biopolymer packaging are anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for the market during forecast period. However, the performance issues with bio-based materials and high cost of bio-packaging materials may stifle market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Biopolymer Packaging Market study include: Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Europe dominated the market in 2022 owing to the presence of key market players, the rise of the industry in Europe has also been aided by strong buying power and great awareness among the population at large. Asia Pacific is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period, The expansion of the market in the area is attributed to rising consumer awareness and a growing restriction on single-use plastic, especially in nations like Taiwan, Malaysia, India, and others. As part of its environmental reform drive, China has also stopped importing plastic waste for recycling and is instead concentrating on sustainable growth. Over the course of the forecast period, developments like these are anticipated to fuel the expansion of the regional biopolymer packaging market.
