Biodegradable Plastics Market Overview:
Biodegradable plastic is a plant-based plastic that has no negative environmental consequences. In a reasonable amount of time, it degrades spontaneously in base compounds. As a result, biodegradable plastic is composed of molecules that can degrade spontaneously through the activity 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.

Global Biodegradable Plastics Market Dynamics
Growing use of biodegradable plastics, particularly in food packaging, is a key factor in the market's growth during the coming years. The finest plastic substitutes, biodegradable polyesters, are largely responsible for this rise. Therefore, factors predicted to boost the global biodegradable plastics market expansion in the forecast period include rise in usage of food packaging, bottles, and disposable tableware as well as government support for biodegradable materials with stringent controls on plastics consumption to prevent environmental pollution. To reduce plastic waste nationwide, the German government, for instance, declared in 2020 that it will outlaw the sale of single-use plastic products like cutlery, straws, food containers, and other similar products starting in July 2021. The German Association of Local Utilities predicts that trash from popular plastic items is increasing by 10% to 20% year, primarily due to single-use plastic products.
Further, because of increased efforts to reduce the use of conventional plastics and growing consumer awareness of eco-friendly plastic alternatives, the market for biodegradable plastics is expected to grow. Traditional petroleum-based plastics deteriorate slowly over a long period of time and end up in landfills. Biodegradable polymers are quickly broken down and returned to the environment. Additionally, biodegradable polymers break down more quickly than traditional plastics. Biodegradable polymers break down 60% more quickly and in as little as 180 days than conventional plastics, which take over a thousand years to break down.

The pandemic has disrupted the routine manufacturing operations of companies in the consumer goods sector. The Institute for Supply Management Research estimates that 75% of firms reduced their revenue targets as a result of supply chain disruptions.
The consumer sector is going through a mixed economy, with certain industries—like frozen foods and household cleaning—seeing a boost in consumer demand and others—such as retail sales and foot traffic in stores, seeing major declines. To keep up with the shift in customer demand toward e-commerce, these companies must adapt. Thus, the consumer products industry as a whole has been forced into the digital era.
Segmentation Analysis
The global biodegradable plastics market is segmented based on product type, end-user, and region. On the basis of type, the market has been segmented into PLA, starch blends, PHA, and biodegradable polyesters. Due to its widespread use in a range of industries, such as packaging, automobiles, and agriculture, the starch blends segment led the global market for biodegradable plastics. Plastics for PLA products are also quickly gaining ground on the market. A significant industry driver is PLA's low cost as compared to other products.
On the basis of end-user, the market has been segmented into packaging, consumer goods, textile, and agriculture & horticulture. Because of the movement in consumer choice from artificial to bio-based products in response to increased environmental consciousness, the packaging segment dominated the global market for biodegradable plastics. Biodegradable plastic is used in many different applications and has the potential to be useful in food packaging. The need for biodegradable plastic in packaging applications is directly impacted by the rise in packaged food options as a result of demographic and lifestyle changes.

Recent Developments
In April 2021, a new strategic alliance between NatureWorks and IMA Coffee, a market leader in coffee handling, processing, and packaging, was announced. Through this agreement, high-performing biodegradable K-cups will have a wider market reach in North America.
In February 2020, a joint venture between BASF and the Italian company Fabbri Group was established to provide a sustainable replacement for the cling film used in fresh food packaging. The film will be used to package fresh fruits, vegetables, and meat. The Fabbri group will produce it using Ecovio bioplastic from BASF, which will increase the demand for biodegradable polymers in packaging applications.
