1. MARKET OVERVIEW
The Sustainable Food Packaging industry is on the verge of a revolution. As the world is moving towards
sustainability, the novel bio-based and biodegradable packaging materials are expected to create a promisable
future in the food packaging industry. In 2017, nearly 1.19 billion tonnes (60% of total production) of bioplastics
produced was used for packaging products, about 50% of which was for packaging F&B products. Increasing
pressure from climate change activists and consumers is forcing governments and companies alike, to come up
with innovative packaging and recycling strategies for a sustainable future. The past few years have seen a
multitude of F&B companies committing to sustainability goals and programs. The coming decade will see the
realization of these goals and their impact on how products are consumed and how packaging waste is handled.
Furthermore, the bioplastics industry is in the initial phase of growth. Although newly constructed plants are still
less, the number seems to be increasing at a huge rate in the coming decades.
