Burlingame, Oct. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The global plant-based plastic Market, valued at 1.88 billion dollars in 2024, is on a trajectory of rapid expansion, with projections indicating it will soar to 3.78 billion dollars by 2031, as per a recent report by Coherent Market Insights. Plant-based plastics help reduce plastic pollution and carbon footprint as they are derived from renewable plant sources like sugarcane, cassava, corn, etc. through fermentation process. Furthermore, leading companies are increasingly investing in R&D to develop novel plant-based biomaterials with properties comparable to petroleum-based plastics in order to replace fossil fuel-based plastics.

Market Dynamics

There is a big problem with plastic pollution hurting to our planet. To help, people are looking for alternatives to plastics made from oil. Plant-based plastics are a great solution to this problem. Companies can use natural sources such as sugarcane, cassava, corn starch, and wood. These plastic are good for the Earth because they break down easily and can be reused.

The government is also helping by making rules to reduce plastic use and promote eco-friendly plastics. For instance, as per Library of Congress, in July 2021, European Union banned some single use plastics. This means companies will make more plant-based plastics, which is great news for the environment.
