Biodegradable Copolyesters Market Report

Nowadays, plastics are deployed for multiple applications on account of their versatility and ability to be manufactured on a large scale. However, they do not decompose naturally and cause various environmental problems. As per National Geographic, plastic packaging makes up almost half of all plastic waste produced across the world, and out of it, only less than one-fifth is recycled. In order to lower the ecological problems related to plastic recycling, manufacturers have developed various biodegradable and biocompatible copolyesters.

Green Packaging Trend to Play a Significant Role in Market Growth

Growing trend of green packaging is opening doors for the Biodegradable Copolyesters market.  Additionally, manufacturers are involved in research and development and are exploring new synthetic routes to reduce the cost of biodegradable materials, while maintaining the required physical properties. This will eventually offer a boost to the overall Biodegradable Copolyesters market growth.

Increasing application of Biodegradable Copolyesters in the healthcare space is also likely to emerge as a key factor driving the Biodegradable Copolyesters market. Strict government regulations to restrict the usage of non-biodegradable plastic polybag may induce the demand for Biodegradable Copolyesters.
