Bioplastics Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Product (Biodegradable, Non-biodegradable), By Application (Packaging, Agriculture, Automotive & Transportation, Electronics, Textile), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2025 - 2030
Bioplastics Market Growth & Trends
The global bioplastics market size is estimated to reach USD 44.77 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 19.5% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. An increase in demand for plastic alternatives has been observed in the market, owing to the rising concerns over the use of plastics. With the rapid pace of innovation and new product development, manufacturers in the market are shifting their focus toward the development of bioplastics.
Companies are continuously developing product lines using biodegradable & non-biodegradable bioplastics and recycled materials to address the concerns regarding the toxic effects of plastic waste. Several small and medium-scale businesses have committed to using recycled or sustainably sourced materials by a specific time frame. This is expected to drive market growth in the coming years.
In addition, bioplastics help reduce the micro plastic content in the soil and water, as their waste gradually decomposes into small pieces. Moreover, efforts have been taken by associations, such as the European Bioplastics, to clarify further the definition of bioplastics in the regulations prescribed by the government. These trends are expected to benefit the overall market growth over the forecast period.
