Description

Global Bioplastic Growth Opportunities

Today, the vast majority of plastic is still made from fossil fuel and is designed to be durable. However, the twin challenges of reducing fossil fuel consumption and decreasing plastic waste brought in some significant changes to the plastic industry in 2022.

Options to counter these challenges include the use of plastic that is biobased or biodegradable or both. All 3 options are included in the broadest definition of bioplastic and are covered in this study.

Some complications were observed when trying to quantify this market, especially because some bioplastics are only partially biobased, that is, they comprise a mix of fossil- and bio-based monomers.

Where companies have replaced their fossil-based monomers with the same molecule from a bio-based source, they are referred to as drop-in bioplastics.

This Frost & Sullivan study discusses bioplastic's repercussions on sustainability and the fossil fuel price impact on bioplastic demand. The study covers the global market, which is segmented by end application. Demand and revenue are established in terms of finished polymers, with their respective units being kilotons and the US dollar.

The future of the plastic industry depends on participants' recycling and waste material management efforts. In this sense, bioplastic offers an alternative source and a different end-of-life process, with some of it being biodegradable and/or compostable in industrial or household facilities.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
