Bioplastics Manufacturing in the US

During the current period, concerns over the future of petroleum-based plastics supported demand for recyclable and sustainable bioplastics. Volatility in the world price of crude oil influenced major plastics producers to search for an alternative. Despite oil price volatility, bioplastics still remain more expensive than petro-based products. Overall, revenue has been falling at a CAGR of 1.5% to $1.1 billion over the past five years, including an expected jump of 1.2% in 2023 alone.
