According to the latest report by TechSci Research, titled Europe Biodegradable Plastics Market – Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028, the European biodegradable plastics market is expected to register a significant CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is driven by increasing collaborations and partnerships among leading companies, leveraging their combined expertise to strengthen their market positions.
Market Overview
Biodegradable plastics, commonly known as bioplastics, are derived from renewable sources such as corn starch, sugarcane, and potato starch. These materials decompose naturally, reducing the long-term environmental impact associated with conventional plastics. The textile industry, under pressure to adopt sustainable alternatives, is turning to biodegradable plastics to align with consumer demand for eco-friendly products.
Europe’s stringent environmental regulations have facilitated the widespread adoption of biodegradable plastics. Policies promoting a circular economy and reducing plastic waste have encouraged the textile industry to shift towards sustainable materials. Collaborations between textile researchers and bioplastic manufacturers have led to innovations such as biodegradable fibers and compostable textiles.
