Bio-Based Polymer Market: By Type, By End User and Region Forecast 2020-2031
Bio-Based Polymer Market: By Type, By End User and Region Forecast 2020-2031
Bio-Based Polymer Market size was valued at US$ 7,167.0 million in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 10,991.8 million by 2031, growing at a significant CAGR of 6.3% from 2025-2031. Some of the key factors responsible for the market growth include favorable government policies, increasing adaptation in automotive applications, increasing use in the packaging end-use industry and availability of feedstock. It is acclaimed that biopolymers costs two times more than conventional. Continuation of high crude oil and natural gas prices will allow biopolymers to become more cost-competitive with petroleum-based resins. However, the amount of large-scale industrial production of biopolymers which will be more common in the future with the implementation of cost reduction is expected.
In addition, high growth in emerging economies provides huge growth opportunity for the market. This report studies global bio-based polymer market dynamics elaborately to identify the current trends & drivers, future opportunities and possible challenges to the key stakeholders operating in the market. In addition, global bio-based polymer market report includes human demographics, regulatory scenario, and competition analysis with vividly illustrated the competition dashboard to assess the market competition. Moreover, PBI analyzed global bio-based polymer market to better equip clients with possible investment opportunities across the regions (regional Investment hot spots) and market unmet needs (Product Opportunities).

Conventional plastics continue to benefit society in innumerable ways, even though recent public focus on plastics has centered mostly on human health and environmental concerns, including endocrine-disrupting properties and long-term pollution. Plastics are composed of a network of molecular monomers bound together to form macromolecules of infinite use in human society. Different human health problems like irritation in the eye, vision failure, breathing difficulties, respiratory problems, liver dysfunction, cancers, skin diseases, lungs problems, headache, dizziness, birth effect, reproductive, cardiovascular, genotoxic, and gastrointestinal causes for using toxic plastics. Hence, biopolymers and, especially, biobased plastics have increased their demand to replace conventional plastics to address environmental and human concerns.
Asia Pacific accounted for larger revenue share in global bio-based polymer market with considerable CAGR. The growth in this region can be attributed to increase in demand for bio-based polymers from consumer goods, encouraging government rules and huge availability of raw materials. Dynamic textile consumption as well as production is likely to further support the growth of the market in this region.
