Pune, India, March 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global polylactic acid market size is expected to gain momentum by reaching USD 2,306,708.2 thousand by 2028 while exhibiting an impressive CAGR of 16.3% between 2021 and 2028. Fortune Business Insights published this information in its latest report, titled, “Polylactic Acid Market, 2021-2028.” The report further mentions that the market stood at USD 698,200.9 thousand in 2020. The growth is attributable to the rising packaging industry and the growing demand for biodegradable plastics that will propel the demand for advanced polylactic acid during the forecast period.
COVID-19 Leads to Reduced Adoption of PLA Owing to Industrial Shutdown
- In April 2020, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) estimated a 3% fall in the overall global economic activity in 2020, which is believed to be higher than the 2009 economic slowdown.
The shutdown of industries has led to reduced industrial demand for PLA and other plastic packaging products. Moreover, several government agencies have banned the use of single-use plastics citing no provision for the biodegradation of the materials. This is expected to hamper the market growth in the short run.
However, proactive initiatives from the government and private companies are expected to favor the growth of the market in the forthcoming years. For instance,
- November 2020 – Total Corbion PLA released its whitepaper that explains its position on the preferred end-of-life options for PLA bioplastics. The company further outlined the importance of PLA products and its applications that can aid in contributing towards effective functioning of a circular economy.
