Bioplastics are a type of plastic that is made from renewable sources such as plant starches and vegetable fats. They are considered to be more environmentally friendly than traditional petroleum-based plastics because they are biodegradable and do not release harmful chemicals when they break down. Bioplastics can be used in a variety of applications, including packaging, consumer goods, and even medical devices.
However, it is important to note that not all bioplastics are created equal, and some may still have negative environmental impacts depending on their production methods and end-of-life disposal. As technology advances, researchers and companies continue to work towards creating more sustainable and effective bioplastics.
In terms of materials, the global bio-plastics market is segmented as bio-PET, bio-PE, bio-PA, bio-degradable polyesters, PLA & PLA blends, starch blends, PHA and others. Currently, the bio-PET material segment dominates the bio-plastics market, and was estimated to be US$ 5.6 Bn in 2014. This segment is expected to reach US$ 29.1 Bn by 2020, with a momentous CAGR of 31.4% for the forecast period. Moreover, an increasing demand for bio-plastics from the beverage packaging industry and effectiveness of bio-plastics in one-time use application has driven the demand for the bio-PET in the last few years.
