China dominated the Asia Pacific bioplastics market, in terms of both revenue and volume, in 2022. The market in China is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to the rising demand for the product in applications including packaging, automotive & transport, agriculture, consumer goods, building & construction and textiles.
China is one of the prominent consumers of non-alcoholic beverages across the globe, which, in turn, contributes to the demand for bioplastics in the packaging sector. The country is also one of the biggest consumers of packaged food products including fresh food, ready-to-eat food, and processed food, which further paves way for the use of bioplastics in packaging applications.
However, reducing demand from end-use customers due to the outbreak of COVID-19 is hampering the growth of the automotive, consumer goods, and textiles (especially fashion apparel) industries. This, in turn, is projected to restrain the demand for bioplastics in the aforementioned applications.
