DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “The Global Market for Bioplastics and Natural Fibers to 2030” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
Government legislation, consumer trends and environmental concerns are compelling the development of bioplastics and natural fibers in markets including food packaging, automotive, building/construction, textiles, agriculture, sports & leisure and consumer goods.
Biocomposites based on these materials offer significant advantages over incumbent synthetic materials including lightweighting, sustainability and reduced carbon footprint. Natural fibers are also abundant and low-cost. The bioplastics and natural fibers market will witness good growth through to 2030, with excellent opportunities for large producers and start ups.
The report provides an in-depth analysis of the bioplastics and natural fibers market by applications and bioplastic and natural fiber type.
