The paper straw market is witnessing strong growth as governments impose single-use plastic bans across the globe. Countries like the U.S., Canada, the UK, and EU nations have introduced strict regulations against plastic straws, driving demand for biodegradable paper alternatives. The foodservice industry, including fast-food chains, cafes, and restaurants, is a major driver of paper straw adoption.
