Dublin, June 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Bioplastics - A Global Market Overview 2018" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Packaging, Automotive and Textiles to Drive the Future Growth for Bioplastics to Reach 2.6 Million Metric Tons by 2022
Bioplastics industry is in emerging phase, though being in existence for about a decade or more. Bioplastics are used in an increasing number of markets, from packaging, catering products, consumer electronics, automotive, agriculture/horticulture and toys to textiles and a number of other segments. Bioplastics can be produced from renewable resources, as well as synthetic polymers and not all bioplastics are bio-based. Bioplastics can encompass a complete group of materials that can be biobased, biodegradable, or both.
Asia-Pacific accounts the largest regional market for biodegradable bioplastics with an estimated 351.8 thousand metric tons in 2017 (40.4% share), reaching 565 thousand metric tons in 2022. Asia-Pacific is also anticipated the fastest growing regional market with a robust CAGR of 9.9% during 2017-2022 period. Europe is estimated the second largest regional biodegradable bioplastics market with 31.8% share 2017.
