Biopolymers Market Size and Forecasts (2021 - 2031), Global and Regional Share, Trends, and Growth Opportunity Analysis

The biopolymers market is expected to grow from US$ 4,600 million in 2022 to US$ 14,000 million by 2031; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 11.5% from 2022 to 2031.

Biopolymers are polymers that are obtained from living organisms and are entirely biodegradable. A few common examples of biopolymers include proteins, carbohydrates, DNA, RNA, lipids, nucleic acids, and peptides. Since biopolymers are composed of living beings, they are entirely neutral toward carbon and easily recycled or renewed. Biopolymers do not create CO2 pollution because crops absorb the emitted CO2 by them instead of getting released into the atmosphere. There are four different kinds of biopolymers sugar-based biopolymers, cellulose-based biopolymers, synthetic-based biopolymers, and natural polymers.

MARKET DYNAMICS

The packaging and automotive industries are the major consumers of biopolymers. The biopolymers market has witnessed significant growth owing to factors such as a rise in demand from the automotive & packaging industry and a growing need for environment-friendly products.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, many industries, such as chemical & materials and automotive, faced unprecedented challenges due to disruptions in the global supply chain that adversely affected the manufacturing, delivery schedules, and sales of various goods. The market size for biopolymers decreased due to a decline in the growth of several industrial sectors. Many production sites were either partially or fully closed to combat the spread of SARS-CoV-2. The COVID-19 pandemic also caused fluctuations in the prices of biopolymers due to a huge gap in supply and demand. However, since 2021, the packaging & automotive industry has been strongly growing, and the growth trend is foreseen to continue in the coming years. Thus, the growing consumption of biopolymers is likely to bolster the market during the forecast period.
