Bio-based non-aromatic segment accounted for largest share, in terms of value, of the global biodegradable plastic additives market in 2023.
Based on type, the biodegradable plastic additives market is divided into bio-based non-aromatic, and bio-based aromatic. The bio-based non-aromatic segment accounted for the largest share. In 2023, this can be attributed to the better environmental performance, cost-effectiveness, and broad applicability of bio-based non-aromatic over other bio-based and petroleum-based biodegradable plastic additives. Sourced from renewable material such as vegetable oils and natural fats, these additives are in line with growing demand for sustainable solutions amid tightening environmental regulations and growing consumer awareness. Non-aromatic structures provide better biodegradation without sacrificing functionality in packaging, and consumer goods.
Consumer goods segment was accounted for the largest share in biodegradable plastic additives market, in terms of value, during the forecast period.
The biodegradable plastic additives market is segmented into packaging, consumer goods, electronics, healthcare, textiles, and others. Consumer goods include the largest share of market in the biodegradable plastic additives market during their forecast period due to rising demand for eco-friendly products and increased awareness of the environment among consumers. Biodegradable plastics with additives feature widely in applications such as packaging, disposable items, textiles, and household goods and are increasingly used because of sustainability mandates and consumer preference for greener alternatives. This adoption is also taking place because of very stringent government regulations with respect to single-use plastics, particularly in food packaging and personal care sectors.
