2030 年生物降解塑料市场预测 - 按产品、应用和地区划分的全球分析Biodegradable Plastics Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Product (Polybutylene Adipate Terephthalate, Polybutylene Succinate, Polyhydroxyalkanoates, Polylactic Acid and Other Products), Application and By Geography |
根据 Stratistics MRC 的数据,预计 2023 年全球生物降解塑料市场规模将达到 52.4 亿美元,2030 年将达到 113.8 亿美元,复合年增长率为 11.7%。
由植物、藻类和微生物等可再生资源製成的塑料被称为可生物降解、可堆肥和环保塑料。 与由化石燃料製成的传统塑料相比,可生物降解塑料可以通过生物过程自然分解,并转化为无害元素,如水、二氧化碳和生物质。 这一特性使其非常适合各种应用,包括包装、农业、汽车和消费品。
根据欧洲环境署2021年1月发布的数据,近40%的受访者表示他们计划在未来采取更加可持续的行动。
一次性塑料的滥用及其对环境和人类健康的有害影响推动了全球对可生物降解塑料的需求。 石油基塑料需要数十年的时间才能分解并最终进入垃圾填埋场,这使其成为紧迫的环境问题。 可生物降解塑料被吸收到环境中并迅速降解。 可生物降解塑料的分解速度也比传统塑料更快。 因此,日益增长的环境问题预计将重振可生物降解塑料市场。
与传统聚合物相比,可生物降解塑料的高价格限制了市场增长。 玉米淀粉和甘蔗等植物基材料通常用作生物降解塑料的原材料。 与传统塑料中使用的化石燃料的提取和精炼相比,这些可再生资源的生产和加工成本可能非常昂贵。 与传统塑料相比,可生物降解塑料的生产可能需要额外的工艺和专用机械。 这会增加生产成本并提高整个製造过程的价格。
生物降解塑料生产中不断采用新技术,预计未来将带来丰富的投资机会。 抗菌技术现在正被纳入可生物降解材料的生产中,以製造长保质期的材料并延长包装商品(尤其是食品)的保质期。 此外,抗菌包装还可用于阻止微生物生长,确保化学和微生物食品安全。
塑料成本受到石油价格波动的影响。 从长远来看是很难的。 由于供需动态,石油价格可能会下跌。 因此,传统塑料的成本将会下降,这可能会阻碍对可生物降解塑料的需求。
由于全球供应炼和生产服务中断,COVID-19 大流行对全球可生物降解塑料的生产产生了负面影响。 此外,在疫情期间,数百万人丢弃了手套、口罩、消毒瓶和围裙等一次性塑料製品,产生了大量塑料垃圾。 这些因素正在增加可生物降解塑料在个人防护装备和其他产品中的使用。 由于冠状病毒大流行后的业务扩张,生物降解塑料的市场趋势预计也将稳步增长。
到 2022 年,包装领域占据了生物降解塑料的最大市场份额,预计在预测期内将保持这一地位。 可生物降解塑料用于硬质和软质包装,并且随着它们在食品包装材料(如盒子、包装纸、杯子和盘子)中取代更传统的塑料,其用途正在不断扩大。 此外,药物封装和外科手术作为可生物降解塑料在医疗领域的新应用也变得越来越普遍。
PLA领域预计在预测期内将快速增长。 由于 PLA 由可再生原材料製成,比传统塑料排放的温室气体更少,因此它越来越多地应用于农业和包装等各种行业。 预计这些因素将在未来几年推动市场增长。
由于包装、农业、消费品和纺织品等各种最终用途行业对生物降解塑料的需求不断增长,预计欧洲将占据全球市场的最大销售份额。 欧盟委员会认识到生物塑料在生物经济中发挥着重要作用,并有可能加速向循环经济的转型。 此外,在预测期内,通过增加使用可生物降解塑料以发展循环生物经济的举措、制定政策和提供补贴,预计该地区的市场增长将得到推动。
由于可生物降解塑料在包装行业的使用不断增加,预计亚太地区在预测期内将出现高增长率。 该地区便捷的原材料采购、负担得起的劳动力以及具有成本效益的原材料供应,促使在欧洲和美国运营的公司将製造基地转移到亚太地区。
2023 年 6 月,阿科玛收购了 PI Advanced Materials 的控股权,扩大了其高性能聚合物产品组合。 Glenwood Private Equity拟收购韩国上市公司PI Advanced Materials (PIAM) 54%的股权,企业价值7.28亿欧元。 该公司将完全合併到阿科玛的会计中。
2022 年 12 月,Futero 将在诺曼底建立欧洲首个垂直一体化生物精炼厂,生产和回收 PLA。 继2021年在中国建设第一家PLA(聚乳酸)工厂后,Futero将选址位于鲁昂和勒阿弗尔之间的塞纳河轴线上的塞纳河区(圣让德福尔维尔市),目标是在杰罗姆港工业和港口区建立一个新的完全一体化的生物精炼厂。
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Biodegradable Plastics Market is accounted for $5.24 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $11.38 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 11.7% during the forecast period. Plastics made from renewable resources like plants, algae, or microorganisms are known as biodegradable plastics, compostable plastics, or eco-friendly plastics. Biodegradable plastics, as opposed to conventional plastics made from fossil fuels, can decompose naturally through biological processes into harmless elements like water, carbon dioxide, and biomass. Due to this quality, they are very desirable for a variety of applications, including packaging, agriculture, automotive, and consumer goods.
According to data published by the European Environment Agency in January 2021, nearly 40% of respondents said they planned to adopt more sustainable behavior in the future.
Global demand for biodegradable plastics is being driven by the overuse of disposable single-use plastics and their detrimental effects on the environment and human health. Being made of petroleum, plastics take decades to degrade and end up in landfills, making them one of the most urgent environmental concerns. Biodegradable plastics are absorbed into the environment and break down quickly. Biodegradable plastics also decompose more quickly than conventional plastics. As a result, growing environmental concerns are anticipated to fuel the market for biodegradable plastics.
The market's growth is constrained by biodegradable plastics' higher price compared to traditional polymers. Plant-based materials, like corn starch or sugarcane, are frequently used as the raw materials for biodegradable plastics. In comparison to the extraction and refinement of fossil fuels used in conventional plastics, the production and processing costs of these renewable resources can be higher. In comparison to conventional plastics, the production of biodegradable plastics may require extra steps or specialized machinery. This may raise production costs and drive up the price of the manufacturing process as a whole.
Future years are expected to bring about a wealth of investment opportunities due to the continuous adoption of new technologies in the production of biodegradable plastics. Antimicrobial technology is now being incorporated into the production of biodegradable materials to create materials with longer shelf lives and to prolong the preservation of packaged goods, particularly food items. Additionally, antimicrobial packaging is used to stop microbial growth and guarantee chemical and microbiological food safety.
The cost of plastics is influenced by changes in oil prices. In the long term, this would be difficult. With the dynamics of supply and demand, oil prices may decrease. This may lead to a drop in the cost of traditional plastics, which would hinder the demand for biodegradable plastics.
Due to disruptions in supply chains and production services around the world, the COVID-19 pandemic had a negative effect on the production of biodegradable plastics globally. Additionally, millions of people discarded single-use plastic items like gloves, masks, sanitizer bottles, and aprons during the pandemic, producing a significant amount of plastic waste. The use of biodegradable plastics in PPE and other products has increased as a result of this factor. The market trend for biodegradable plastics is also anticipated to grow favorably following the coronavirus pandemic due to company developments.
Packaging accounted for the largest market share of biodegradable plastics in 2022 and is anticipated to continue to hold this position throughout the forecast period. It is utilized in both rigid and flexible packaging and is expanding as more and more conventional plastics are being replaced in food packaging materials like boxes, wraps, cups, and plates. In addition, new uses for biodegradable plastics in the medical field are becoming more common for drug encapsulation and surgical procedures.
Over the forecast period, the PLA segment is anticipated to grow rapidly. Because it is made of renewable raw materials and emits fewer greenhouse gases than traditional plastics, PLA is increasingly used in a variety of industries, including agriculture and packaging. These factors are anticipated to fuel market growth over the upcoming years.
Because of the rising demand for biodegradable plastics across a variety of end-use industries, including packaging, agriculture, consumer goods, and textiles, Europe is anticipated to hold the largest revenue share in the global market. The European Commission acknowledged that bioplastics play a crucial role in the bioeconomy and have the potential to hasten the transition to a circular economy. Furthermore, during the forecast period, market growth in the region is anticipated to be boosted by rising initiatives, policy establishment, and the availability of subsidies regarding the use of biodegradable plastics for the development of a circular bioeconomy.
Due to the growing use of biodegradable plastics in the packaging industry, Asia Pacific is anticipated to post a strong growth rate during the forecast period. Due to the region's convenient access to feedstock purchases, affordable labor, and availability of cost-effective raw materials, businesses operating in Europe and the United States are moving their manufacturing operations to Asia-Pacific, which is boosting the region's market.

In June 2023, Arkema broadens its range of high performance polymers with the acquisition of a controlling stake in PI Advanced Materials. Proposed acquisition of Glenwood Private Equity's 54% stake in the listed South Korean company PI Advanced Materials (PIAM), for €728m enterprise value. The company will be fully consolidated in Arkema's accounts.
In December 2022, Futerro plans to set up Europe's first vertically integrated biorefinery in Normandy to produce PLA and recycle it. Following the construction of its first PLA (poly-lactic acid) plant in China in 2021, Futerro's ambition is to set up a new fully integrated biorefinery in the industrial and port area of Port-Jerome, in the Caux Seine agglomeration (commune of Saint-Jean-de-Folleville), located on the Seine axis between Rouen and Le Havre.
