Sustainability and Environmental Concerns Favor Market Growth
The burgeoning awareness of the detrimental effects of petroleum-based ethylene on the environment, coupled with regulatory pressures and advancements in bio-based technologies, is driving a significant shift toward bio-based ethylene in India. This shift not only addresses environmental concerns but also aligns with the broader goals of reducing carbon emissions and promoting a circular economy. Moreover, the market for bio-based alternatives is expected to grow in the coming years with the continuously rising consumer demand for eco-friendly products, further diminishing the reliance on fossil-based chemicals and contributing to a more sustainable future. Thus, sustainability and environmental concerns drive the India bio-based ethylene market.
Strategic Partnerships and Collaborations to Create Growth Opportunities in the Market
Collaboration with established global firms can help Indian companies gain access to advanced technologies and best practices that can accelerate the development and production of bio-based ethylene. In January 2024, IGL announced a technical collaboration with US-based Scientific Design Inc. to produce high-quality bio-glycols using sustainable agricultural feedstock at its advanced facilities. These partnerships serve as opportunities for Indian companies to harness international expertise and offer crucial channels for technology transfer. Thus, strategic initiatives by major market players are expected to create new opportunities for the India bio-based ethylene market growth during the forecast period.
India Bio-Based Ethylene Market Report Segmentation Analysis

Based on raw material, the India bio-based ethylene market is segmented into sugar, starch, and lignocellulosic biomass. The sugar segment held the largest market share in 2023. Based on end-use industry, the India bio-based ethylene market is segmented into packaging, additives, lubricants, and detergents. The packaging segment held the largest market share in 2023.
India Bio-Based Ethylene Market Share Analysis by Geography
The geographic scope of the India bio-based ethylene market report focuses on the historical market revenues and forecasts in the country. India, with a robust manufacturing base, is a significant contributor to the global chemicals and plastics industries. The country is home to over 30,000 plastic processing units, 85–90% of which are small and medium enterprises (SMEs). These units produce a wide array of plastic products, including packaging materials, films, and containers. However, with growing environmental concerns related to conventional plastic products, there has been a significant push toward the adoption of bio-based alternatives. This shift is further supported by the Indian government's initiatives to promote the use of biodegradable and compostable plastics, aligning with the global agenda of reducing plastic waste and carbon emissions. Bio-based ethylene, derived from renewable resources such as bioethanol, presents a sustainable alternative to conventional ethylene. The burgeoning awareness among consumers about the environmental impact of traditional plastics and the benefits of using bio-based alternatives is likely to fuel the India bio-based ethylene market.
