DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Biopolymer Films Market 2018-2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The analysts forecast the global biopolymer films market to grow at a CAGR of 6.65% during the period 2018-2022.
Biopolymer films are biodegradable and compostable materials that have packaging applications. They are manufactured from renewable raw materials such as cellulose, starch, polylactic acid (PLA), chitosan, and proteins.
One trend in the market is availability of abundant raw material. Biopolymer films are extracted from renewable sources like lignin, pectin, cellulose, starch, and proteins. One of the major raw material for biopolymer films is cellulose and it is sourced from wood pulp and cotton fibers.
One driver in the market is sustainable nature of biopolymer films. Biopolymers films are biodegradable and degrade easily when they are exposed to heat, moisture, and microbial actions. Raw materials such as starch, biomass, and other renewable substances are the main source for biopolymer films.
The report states that one challenge in the market is high product costs. When compared to synthetic or plastic films, biopolymer films are expensive. Despite offering functional advantages over their synthetic counterparts, the high costs associated with biopolymer films limit the growth of the market to a certain extent.
