Strategic Insights

Polylactic Acid Market Growth Drivers
  • Rising Demand for Eco-Friendly Materials: There is a rise in the need for eco-friendly materials due to the increasing environmental concern among consumers and businesses that do not want to use conventional plastics. In this bio-based and compostable, a fit-in-the-blank material is a polylactic acid. Industries are looking for ways to lessen inventors’ shocks while sustaining their targets. Hence, PLA is being used more and more for carrying out weaving applications.
  • Government Regulations and Prohibition Laws: Every government in the world has placed a set of rules which however, deal with plastic wastage and promote the use of alternative biodegradable materials, and such is plastic lac. Prohibition Laws on the use of certain polymers such as single-use plastic bags and promotion of plant-based products and plant-based plastic production - are tendencies that help to increase the demand for PLA. These approaches not only place a focus on consumers but also on manufacturers, bearing in mind the fact that all these products are supplied to consumers.
  • Advances in PLA Production Techniques: Some of the improvements in polylactic acid production practices, for example, altered fermentation practices and better production methods, are making the product more accessible and cheaper to produce. Advances in technology translate to lower costs of production owing to higher yields of PLA making it cheaper in the market when compared to conventional fossil fuel plastics.
Polylactic Acid Market Future Trends
  • Rising Demand for Sustainable Packaging: The global market for PLA is expected to gain from the increasing demand for sustainable packaging products. Nowadays, there is a growing use of PLA in food packaging, disposable spoons, and other products as juggernaut e-commerce, and the need for green packages for the products continues, if not rapidly, growing. Because of its composition, PLA has many uses ranging from the manufacture of transparent films, hard containers e.t.c, making it the ideal bioplastic for environmentally friendly packaging.
  • PLA's Role in 3D Printing: The 3D printing industry is on a progressive upward trajectory and the commonest material in this field is Polylactic acid. It is a preferred material in 3D printing applications as it is biodegradable and easy to print, with good printing quality. Due to the growing demand for the personalization of products as well as the quick production of prototypes, it is expected that PLA will further increase its contribution to 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, opening new possibilities in this particular category of products.
  • Advancements in PLA Properties: Activities pertaining to PLA have also seen scientists engage in efforts aimed at modifying such properties as thermal stability, impact, moisture barrier, and the formulation of various grades of PLA. One such notable tendency is the development of PLA-based alloys and structures that combine certain advantages of different polymers. These developments will increase the temperature of the use of PLA, thus allowing it to find applications even in more sophisticated fields like automobile and electronics, expanding its overall market.
Polylactic Acid Market Opportunities
  • Growing Demand for Eco-Friendly PLA Materials: The emerging economies are growing more concerned with environmental issues, which presents a significant opportunity for the consumers of the PLA. The countries in the Asia-Pacific, Latin American, and African regions are now concentrating more on eco-friendly materials. Therefore, PLA manufacturers are venturing into these areas by offering materials that are biodegradable according to local needs.
  • Innovation in PLA Production and Performance: Involving research bodies, educational institutions, and even other industries can encourage the expansion of the possibilities of PLA use and production. These collaborations promise innovations in new formulations or technologies of PLA that will increase the performance of the products and their ability to compete in the market.
  • Recycling and Waste Recovery Trends: The current trends towards a circular economy offer possibilities so that the PLA producers can also resort to recycling. It is likely that consumers and businesses that are keen on environmental issues will be able to accept closed-loop systems for products made of PLA quite easily. This improves the environment by reducing the incineration of PLA, enabling waste recovery through recycling and composting, thereby creating a new market for PLA.

Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries.

We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.

We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
