Report Code : A03835
Starch-based bioplastics are environment-friendly, as they reduce carbon footprints of traditional resins. These bioplastics act as a substitute for petroleum based polymers. Moreover, they find application in agricultural where they are used in mulch films to prevent the loss of humus and provide appropriate carbon. Furthermore, they are highly bio degradable, that is, they can be used along the compostable polymer without affecting the degradation process. This factor is expected to boost the growth of the starch-based bioplastics market during the forecast period.

According to a new report published by Allied Market Research titled, “Starch-based Bioplastics Market by Type, Technology, and Application: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021–2030,” the global starch-based bioplastics market was valued at $1.4 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $3.6 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 10.1% from 2020 to 2030.
Starch is an attractive biopolymer due to its abundance, low cost, and potential application in the production of biodegradable films in the form of thermoplastic starch (TPS). However, the availability of the thermoplastic starch-based (TPS) film is limited due to its hydrophilic nature, which has resulted in the changes of its mechanical properties when exposed to high relative humidity. Environmental issues associated with disposal of nonbiodegradable materials have led to the development of biodegradable materials that exhibit maximum usage in packaging applications on a wide commercial scale.
High demand for starch-based bioplastics is attributed to their water permeability and heat preservation properties, which make them ideal for use in agriculture, as they reduce soil contamination and improve sustainability, which, in turn, increases the use of renewable raw materials derived from agro-industrial waste. However, the main issue with using nonbiodegradable plastic films is that they pollute soil when buried in landfills. In addition, removing and disposing of these plastic leftovers from the field before or after harvest is an expensive and time-consuming procedure. Increase in disposable income; rapid growth in the global economy; and rise in usage in medical applications such as in controlled drug release, space filling implants, and wound treatments contribute toward the market growth. Furthermore, robust growth of the medical field owing to technological advancements is expected to foster the market growth.
The global starch-based bioplastics market is segmented into type, technology, application, and region. Depending on type, the market is categorized into starch blended with polylactic acid (PLA), starch blended with polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), and others (starch-based polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) blends and polybutylene succinate (PBS)). Depending on technology, it is fragmented into injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, and others (thermoforming and foaming). As per application, it is classified into rigid packaging, flexible packaging, textile, consumer goods, agriculture, automotive, building & construction, electronics, and others. Region wise, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
