Green & Bio-based Plastic Additives Market To Reach $5.37 Billion By 2030

Green & Bio-based Plastic Additives Market Growth & Trends

The global green & bio-based plastic additives market size is anticipated to reach USD 5.37 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.9% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing adoption and utilization of bioplastics across various industrial sectors and government support in the growth of green and biodegradable plastics is expected to propel the market over the forecast period.

Increasing environmental apprehensions related to plastic waste and its consequences on water and soil pollution are anticipated to be key drivers of market demand. Furthermore, several governments have imposed limitations on traditional and single-use plastics, which are expected to further stimulate the demand for the bioplastics market in the future. This, in turn, is expected to propel the green and bio-based plastic additives market.

Plastics are non-biodegradable and require concerted recycling using accepted techniques to avoid potential harm to the environment. Globally, numerous federal and government regulations have been implemented to oversee plastic waste, to mitigate its adverse effects on the environment.

The demand for bioplastics is on the rise due to a combination of factors, including environmental concerns, regulatory actions, consumer preferences, technological advancements, waste reduction objectives, the promotion of a circular economy, and government support. These factors collectively create opportunities for green and bio-based plastic additives. These additives play a vital role in facilitating the production of sustainable bioplastics, aligning them with various environmental objectives.
