Fortune Business Insights™ presents this information in its latest report titled “Bioplastics Market Size, Share & COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By Type (Biodegradable and Non-Biodegradables), By Application (Rigid Packaging, Flexible Packaging, Textiles, Automotive & Transportation, Agriculture & Horticulture, Consumer Goods, and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2023-2030”.
Bioplastics have gained tremendous popularity in recent years as the demand for eco-friendly products has started increasing in many industries including packaging and automotive. These materials can play a vital role in decreasing plastic pollution and are commonly sourced from eco-friendly sources. Biodegradable plastics can be an effective alternative to traditional plastic products and used in industries such as textile, consumer electronics, and packaging. These factors are expected to boost the bioplastics market growth.
Prices of Conventional Plastics Decreased During COVID-19 Threatened Sales of Bioplastics
The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the manufacturing and transport sectors as the global supply chains had been disrupted due to the shortage of raw materials and labor. The use of crude oil was the lowest during the outbreak period since World War II, which decreased the prices of traditional plastics. Moreover, the volume of green investments declined dramatically during this period and the implementation of regulations on single-use plastics was delayed due to the outbreak. These factors had an adverse effect on the demand for biodegradable plastics, which ultimately slowed the market growth.
Rising Need for Compostable Plastics to Enhance Soil Quality will Accelerate Market Growth
Plastics are widely popular in sectors such as horticulture and agriculture. For example, plastics are majorly used to make storage bags, greenhouses, silos, and bins. Moreover, the current semi-intensive and intensive farming techniques make use of large quantities of harvest-protection bags and mulching films. These products are used to protect the crops from pests, avoid weed growth, and maintain the soil’s moisture and nutrition content. However, since plastics stay in the environment for a longer time and cause major damage, more companies are moving toward sustainable plastic products such as compostable plastics. These plastics not only accelerate plant growth but also break down naturally in the environment, thereby boosting the soil’s quality. These characteristics are predicted to boost the bioplastics market share.
