Starch-Based Bio-Polypropylene to Lead Growth
Among sources, starch-based bio-polypropylene is expected to record the highest CAGR, supported by its biodegradability, affordability, and growing acceptance in industries like food & beverages, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. The material offers moisture resistance, maintains product quality, and benefits from regulatory backing for biodegradable plastics. Advances in production technologies are also making starch-based bio-polymers more viable and cost-effective.
Asia Pacific Leads the Market Expansion
Geographically, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to post the fastest growth in both value and volume, driven by rapid industrialisation in China and India. The demand for eco-friendly alternatives is being reinforced by government regulations restricting conventional plastics, alongside rising consumer preference for sustainable materials in automotive, construction, and packaging industries.
This combination of policy support, consumer awareness, and technological progress is set to accelerate adoption of bio-polypropylene worldwide.
