Vancouver, Dec. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global Polybutylene Adipate Terephthalate (PBAT) Market size was USD 1.46 billion in 2022 and is expected to register a rapid revenue CAGR of 12.9% during the forecast period.
A recent market research report sheds light on the burgeoning Polybutylene Adipate Terephthalate (PBAT) market, revealing its widespread applications and substantial revenue growth. PBAT, a naturally degrading plastic copolymer of adipate acid, is gaining momentum as an eco-friendly alternative in various industries, including industrial composting, hygiene products, packaging materials, and biomedical disciplines.
Key Market Drivers:
- Versatility and Durability: PBAT, known for its exceptional durability and flexibility, is emerging as a preferred alternative to Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) in packaging applications.
- Environmental Impact: The accelerated decomposition of PBAT—breaking down by over 90% in just six months—contrasts sharply with conventional plastics that take more than a century to degrade, aligning with growing environmental concerns.
- Government Initiatives: Favorable government policies promoting green procurement, coupled with rising customer preferences for biodegradable packaging, are key factors propelling market growth.
- Industry Expansion: Noteworthy industry developments include BASF SE's acquisition of Solvay's polyamide business, strengthening its global position, and SKC Ltd.'s investment in building the world's largest biodegradable plastic material production plant in Vietnam.
Application Insights:
- Cling Films Dominate: In 2022, the cling films segment emerged as the market leader, attributing its success to the rising use of cling films in food packaging for extended shelf life and reduced food waste.
- Bin Bags Segment Growth: The bin bags segment is expected to witness moderate revenue growth, driven by the widespread use of trash bags in various industries, including retail, institutional, and industrial, emphasizing their importance in maintaining hygienic conditions.
End-Use Scenario:
- Packaging Industry Dominance: The packaging industry is anticipated to command a significant revenue share, propelled by factors such as the increasing global population, changing consumer preferences, and a surge in demand for packaged food and other products.
Regional Landscape:
- Asia Pacific Leads: The Asia Pacific region secured the largest revenue share in 2022, fueled by government efforts to promote PBAT products, rising public awareness of sustainability, and the rapid expansion of consumer goods and agriculture sectors.
- Europe's Strong Position: Europe claimed the second-largest revenue share, driven by high disposable income, rapid expansion of the Food & Beverage (F&B) industry, and growing consumer demand for biodegradable goods.
- North America's Contribution: North America held the third-largest revenue share, marked by increasing demand for PBAT from manufacturing units and efforts to curtail single-use plastics, with the U.S. experiencing a slowdown in PBAT imports.
