Biodegradable Packaging Materials Market: Dynamics, Segments and Supply Demand

Posted by Kishor on May 16th, 2019

The groundswell of demand for biodegradable packaging materials world over is riding on the wave of the rising popularity of environmental-friendly, recyclable alternatives. In the packaging industry, the adoption of biodegradable packaging among manufacturers has gathered immense pace in recent years. The wide breadth of materials that fall under biodegradable packaging bear the key characteristic of decomposition or degradation into natural materials when acted upon by microorganisms in relatively short time frame when placed in natural environments. They are biodegradable polymers that can be either bio-based or fossil-based, and in most cases can be harvested from nature made using green manufacturing processes.

Bio-based biodegradable materials are biopolymers come from plants and microorganisms. Some of the popular items used for packaging are starch-based plastics, cellulose, poly (lactic acid) (PLA), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), and chitosan. They may contain blends of synthetic materials containing additives and pigments used to enhance the functional attributes of the final packaging. Some of the popular biodegradable packaging paper materials are corrugated board, boxboard, and flexible paper.
