Mercado global de envases de biopolímerosPerspectivas del mercado
Aumento de la necesidad de una solución de embalaje sostenible
Los envases de plástico se utilizan ampliamente en una amplia gama de aplicaciones, como bienes de consumo, alimentos y bebidas. bebidas, productos farmacéuticos y bienes de consumo. La creciente aplicación de plástico en varias industrias de usuarios finales es responsable del aumento de la contaminación ambiental. Así, el reciclaje y la reutilización del plástico se están convirtiendo en un factor importante para la innovación y la sostenibilidad. Además, se estima que el plástico convencional será más caro en el futuro a medida que disminuyan las fuentes de materia prima. Desde los últimos años, el bioplástico ha influido en la industria del plástico a través de la innovación para lograr una mayor eficiencia de recursos, funcionalidad y sostenibilidad. El biopolímero está desempeñando un papel importante en el aumento de los objetivos de reciclaje y la gestión de residuos al sustituir los recursos petrolíferos por recursos renovables. El biopolímero se fabrica utilizando recursos vegetales renovables que ofrecen baja toxicidad, mejor reciclabilidad y alta biodegradabilidad. Además, muchos de los actores de la industria están cambiando hacia materiales de base biológica a partir de recursos fósiles para ofrecer soluciones biodegradables para envases. Con la creciente población y el aumento de la demanda, los fabricantes de envases están encontrando formas innovadoras de satisfacer la creciente demanda de plástico renovable con una mejor calidad de los productos. Por lo tanto, el aumento de la demanda de soluciones de embalaje sostenibles está impulsando el crecimiento del mercado mundial de embalajes de biopolímeros.
Información basada en el tipo de material
Basado en tipo de material, el mercado de envases de biopolímeros se segmenta en polilactidas (PLA), biopolietileno (PE), tereftalato de biopolietileno (PET), almidón, celulosa, PBAT, polihidroxialcanoatos (PHA), succinato de polibutileno (PBS) y otros. En 2018, el segmento del almidón dominó el mercado de envases de biopolímeros; sin embargo, se espera que el mercado de polihidroxialcanoatos (PHA) crezca a la CAGR más alta durante el período de pronóstico. Las mezclas de almidón son la fuente de biomasa más común utilizada para la producción de biopolímeros. Es un polímero natural que se produce a partir de maíz, trigo, arroz, cebada, sorgo, patatas y otros productos similares. Los plásticos a base de almidón son termoplásticos que se forman mezclando con aditivos y plastificantes como glicerina y sorbitol. Dado que las mezclas de almidón son capaces de crear materiales compuestos únicos al incorporarlos con muchos polímeros o biopolímeros a base de petróleo, encuentran uso en varias aplicaciones. La importancia de las mezclas de almidón ha aumentado con la introducción de grados de resina mejorados junto con baja toxicidad, biocompatibilidad, así como propiedades mecánicas y de degradación. Los biopolímeros a base de almidón, como películas y plásticos, se utilizan ampliamente en la industria del embalaje en la producción de vasos, cubiertos, cartones de huevos, pajitas, bolsas desechables, tazones, botellas, bolsas de basura y películas compostables para la agricultura.
Mercado mundial de envases de biopolímeros, por tipo de material– 2018 y 2027Información basada en el usuario final
Basado en el usuario final, el embalaje de biopolímero El mercado está segmentado en alimentos y bebidas, cosméticos y cuidado personal, productos farmacéuticos y otros. El segmento de alimentos y bebidas representó una parte sustancial del mercado mundial de envases de biopolímeros; mientras que se espera que el segmento de cosmética y cuidado personal registre la CAGR más rápida durante el período de pronóstico. Se espera que aumente la demanda de envases de biopolímeros, como mezclas de almidón, PLA y otros, en aplicaciones de alimentos y bebidas. Con la creciente atención a la sostenibilidad, varios fabricantes de alimentos y bebidas han adoptado soluciones de embalaje basadas en biopolímeros en lugar de frenar las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. Por ejemplo, en octubre de 2016, PepsiCo se asoció con Danimer Scientific para la producción de resinas de película biodegradables de Danimer Scientifics con el fin de mantenerse en línea con el objetivo de sostenibilidad.
