The global bio-based polypropylene market size is expected to reach USD 391.6 million by 2030 at a CAGR of 18.2%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rise in demand for bio-based polypropylene can be attributed to focus on sustainable plastics in the food and beverage industry.
Bio-based polypropylene is anticipated to register higher penetration in the automotive industry due to heightening need to reduce overall weight of automobiles. Multiple political and government initiatives are being undertaken for the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and carbon footprint. In addition, major automobile manufacturers are focused on deploying materials that increase fuel efficiency of automobiles, which is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period.
This industry benefits from the presence of several regulations promoting the use of low-weight materials across applications. In addition, the adoption of international concords including the Kyoto and Montreal protocols will propel the use of bio-based polymers for various applications. However, dwindling raw material availability is expected to pose a major threat to industry growth over the coming years.
