Polylactic Acid (PLA) Market
2. Polylactic Acid (PLA) is thermoplastic polyester derived from renewable feedstock such as
corn starch, sugarcane, wheat, tapioca roots. PLA has wide application such as in
Packaging, Textile, Agriculture, Transportation, Bio-Medical and Electronics industry. Due
to environmental concerns and scarcity & volatility of prices of fossil fuels, many
companies and government regulatory bodies are focusing to find substitute to oil-based
products. Moreover, bio based plastics has huge potential to reduce the consumption and
dependency on petroleum based feedstock and lessen negative impact on environment by
reducing carbon footprints.
Thus, PLA has emerged mainly as source of biodegradable plastics available in the market
in recent years. Furthermore, ongoing research and technical development in the field of
bio-based plastics have enhanced their properties such as high temperature resistance,
thus increasing scope of its application market.
The global Polylactic Acid market is presently facing supply crunch as few international
manufacturers trying hard to meet rapidly rising demand for bio-based plastics. Thus, it is
anticipated that the global Polylactic Acid market will grow at a double digit growth rate.
