Bioplastics Market Size, Share and Growth Analysis Report - Forecast Trends and Outlook (2025-2034)
Market Report I 2025-07-28 I 170 Pages I EMR Inc.
The global bioplastics market size reached a value of about USD 11.33 Billion in 2024 . The market is further estimated to grow at a CAGR of 14.10% in the forecast period of 2025-2034 to reach a value of around USD 42.37 Billion by 2034 .
The availability of clean energy raw material sources for the production of bioplastics, increased consumer acceptance of products made from biomaterials , regulatory frameworks for producing biodegradable containers, and the characteristics of bioplastics that make them environmentally-friendly are some of the key drivers of the bioplastic market size. End-use industries are anticipated to profit from a rise in population and higher health awareness in Asia Pacific's growing economies, which will increase the bioplastics market share over the forecast period.
As they are non-toxic and easily degrade, bioplastics have no negative effects on the planet or the environment. According to the bioplastic market report, bioplastics are widely utilised in packaging applications, including films, sheets, household care items, food and beverage packaging, and packaging for personal care goods. Among the most popular bioplastics used for packaging are starch blends, PLA, PBAT, PET, PE, and PBS. Bioplastics market data indicates that more manufacturers are employing bioplastics for packaging due to consumer preferences for environmentally friendly packaging and surging global landfill problem.
As per the bioplastics market research, bioplastics are commonly employed in food packaging applications in the packaging sector. Bottles, jars, and other containers made of bioplastics are also frequently used to package fresh foods. Bottles made of PLA plastic are strong, single-use, and have qualities like gloss and transparency. Unlike products made of petroleum, polylactic acid is easily compostable and does not release hazardous fumes when it is burned. Hence, it is anticipated that throughout the forecast period, the demand for the bioplastics industry trends will continue to be very high.
Increasing Demand for Bioplastics in the Automotive Sector to Propel the Market Growth of Bioplastics
According to the bioplastics market analysis, the automotive and transportation segment is driving the market growth of bioplastics. The increasing production and sales of automobiles due to the rising middle-class income are resulting in the growing use of bioplastics in the manufacture of vehicles, thereby propelling the market expansion of bioplastics. The bioplastics market report indicates that the wide adoption of bioplastics like bio-polyamides, polybutylene succinate over metals and fossil-based plastics in automotive manufacturing owing to its exceptional characteristics such as sustainability, lower carbon footprint, reduced dependency on fossil resources, and lightweight are significantly catalysing the market development of bioplastics. The rising inclination of customers toward environment friendly vehicles is also resulting in the steady increase of the bioplastic market share. The research done by leading automobile manufacturers such as Ford and Toyota in using bioplastics for a bright future in the vehicle manufacturing sector is likely to aid the market for bioplastics over the forecast period.
