Global Biodegradable Plastic Bags and Sacks Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Biodegradable Plastic Bags and Sacks market size is predicted to grow from US$ 2249 million in 2025 to US$ 3294 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2025 to 2031.

Biodegradable plastic bags and sacks are created using materials that will allow the bags or sacks to completely decompose after a period of time. Most biodegradable plastic bags and sacks are said to decompose in three years, although many completely disintegrate in less time. The bags and sacks leave no discernible trace and are completely harmless to the environment. Biodegradable plastic bags and sacks require two key elements in order to decompose. The bags and sacks need to be exposed to oxygen and light. Therefore, biodegradable plastic bags and sacks do not start to decompose from the date of manufacture, only after they have been exposed to light and air.

The biodegradable plastic bags and sacks market has shown significant growth trends globally in recent years, a trend driven primarily by growing environmental awareness, stringent plastic pollution control policies, and widespread concern over traditional plastic pollution issues . Especially in key application areas such as express packaging, disposable tableware, supermarket shopping bags and agricultural mulch films, biodegradable plastic bags are an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastics, and market demand continues to grow.

In terms of the industrial chain, the biodegradable plastic bags and sacks industry includes core links such as raw material production, product manufacturing and downstream applications. The upstream raw materials mainly include bio-based plastics (such as PLA, PHA) and petroleum-based plastics (such as PBAT). The midstream focuses on the production and processing of degradable plastic bags and other products. The downstream applications are widely involved in packaging, agriculture, medical and other fields. With the advancement of technology and the growth of market demand, all links in the industrial chain are constantly being optimized and improved.

Global key players of biodegradable plastic bags and sacks include BioBag, Novolex, EnviGreen, BASF, etc. The top four players hold a share about 30%. Europe is the largest market, with a share over 60%, followed by Asia-Pacific, and North America, both have a share about 35 percent.

There are various types of biodegradable plastic bags and sacks, including PLA, PBS, PBAT and other materials. These materials have their own characteristics in performance and application fields. For example, PLA is one of the most widely used biodegradable materials currently, while PBAT is widely used due to its good biodegradability and physical properties.

In general, the biodegradable plastic bag and sacks market is ushering in a period of rapid development and has become one of the important development directions of the plastics industry. With the continuous expansion of technological innovation, industrial upgrading and market demand, it is expected to continue to maintain growth momentum in the next few years. At the same time, companies need to strengthen technological innovation and industrial chain integration to respond to market changes and challenges and achieve sustainable development.
