Increasing Demand for Biobased Films<\/span><\/h2>\n

If a film <\/span>is supposed to<\/span> crackle nicely, be transparent and permeable to water vapor, cellulose hydrate is hard to beat: The original bioplastic has been used since 1908 under names such as cellophane to package chocolates, flowers, spice jars or even cigarettes.<\/span>For films made of polyethylene or polypropylene, biobased alternatives have long since ceased to be made only from wood or waste paper cellulose. <\/span>Researchers are working on futuristic-looking bioplastics such as polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) from bacteria and polybutylene succinate (PBS) from fermentation residues<\/span>. <\/span>Increasingly, “biobased” components are also being added to conventional petrochemical plastics. <\/span>Over the next ten years, the consumption of biobased films will increase significantly worldwide: Ceresana expects annual growth of over 14.6% in Asia, around 11% in North America and just over 8% in Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n

Biobased<\/span>\u00a0Films Mainly Package Food Products<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

Bags, pouches and sacks currently are the best-known application for bioplastics. Food packaging is the most important market for films made from bioplastics: In 2022, it accounted for around 47% of their market volume. However, shrink and stretch films are by no means only used in the packaging industry. Bioplastic films are also used, for example, for labels, adhesive tapes, technical insulating layers or medical wound dressings. In horticulture, forestry and agriculture, the consumption of films is increasing, as well as in the construction industry, the printing industry and other sectors of the <\/span>economy<\/span>. <\/span>The analysts at Ceresana expect the highest annual growth rates of over 12% for agricultural films, industrial films and construction films. Increasingly, bioplastics are even conquering high-tech products: Membranes for water filters are made of polymer films, and plastic films are also used in batteries for electric cars.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Current Ceresana Market Study “Bioplastic Films\u201d:<\/span><\/h3>\n

Chapter 1 <\/span>of the new study provides a comprehensive presentation and analysis of the global market for biobased plastic films – including forecasts up to 2032: The development of demand (tonnes) and revenues (USD and EUR) is presented for each of the regions of Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific and the rest of the world.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nIn Chapter 2<\/span>, the 11 countries with the largest revenues generated with films are considered individually: Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, the USA, China, Japan, Taiwan and South Korea. <\/span>Demand<\/span> and <\/span>revenues<\/span> are <\/span>presented<\/span> in each case. In addition, <\/span>demand is broken down by application area<\/span>:<\/span><\/p>\n
