COVID-19 impact on global biodegradable plastics marketBiodegradable plastics are used in various industries, such as packaging, consumer goods, textiles and agriculture & horticulture. However, due to the ongoing pandemic, the industries had been affected throughout the world. Manpower shortage, logistical restrictions, material unavailability, and other restrictions had slowed the growth of the industry during the previous year. Due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic and its gradual spread, industries of essential needs, like getting foods and required supplies safely to the consumers are increasingly affected. The global impact has led to sharp reduction in demand for some types of packaging which are condemned as non-essential.

PLA type will account for the major share of the market in terms of value

PLA is the largest type segment of the biodegradable plastics market, as it is used in various end-use industries such as packaging & bags and consumer goods. PLA is made from renewable resources, and it is compostable as well as biodegradable. It is derived from corn starch (in the US and Canada), tapioca roots, chips, or starch (mostly in Asia), or sugarcane (in RoW). This makes PLA non-toxic and environmentally friendly material. The key applications of PLA are thermoformed products, namely, drink cups, takeaway food trays, containers, and planter boxes. It has good rigidity and allows for replacement of polystyrene and PET in such applications. PLA is being adopted rapidly as it is more economical to manufacture compared to other biodegradable plastics.
