The global biodegradable cutlery market size reached US$ 42.9 Million in 2022. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 56.9 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% during 2023-2028. The increasing consciousness about harmful effects using plastic products, rising use of online food delivery applications, and the growing number of ceremonial occasions represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Biodegradable cutlery can be broken down naturally into organic materials by microorganisms, such as bacteria or fungi. It generally comprises spoons, knives, forks, straws, stirrers, and flatware that is made using all-natural materials like agricultural residues, palm leaves, bamboo, bagasse, and cornstarch-based polylactic acid (PLA) plastic. It causes minimal pollution, uses lesser energy, and produces negligible waste as compared to traditionally used plastic- and petroleum-based products. Nowadays, key players operating worldwide are offering customization solutions for biodegradable cutlery to meet the specific needs and preferences of individuals, including shape, size, and colors.

Biodegradable Cutlery Market Trends:

The increasing consciousness among the masses about the harmful effects of utilizing non-biodegradable plastic cutlery and rising consumer preference for natural and organic products represent one of the major factors driving the demand for biodegradable cutlery around the world. Moreover, due to the growing environmental concerns, stringent regulations are imposed by governments of numerous countries to minimize carbon emissions. This, along with the surging awareness about the benefits of adopting the use of biodegradable cutlery, is favoring the growth of the market. In addition, the growing consumption of processed and ready-to-eat (RTE) food products and the increasing use of online food delivery applications due to busy lifestyles and expanding purchasing power of individuals are influencing the market positively. Apart from this, the rising adoption of biodegradable cutlery in cafes, bakeries, quick service restaurants (QSRs), fast food chains, and restaurants is contributing to the market growth. Furthermore, the increasing number of ceremonial occasions, such as birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries, is catalyzing the demand for biodegradable cutlery worldwide. Besides this, product manufacturers are focusing on different marketing strategies like celebrity endorsements and social media campaigns, to increase their overall sales. Additionally, the growing number of hypermarkets, supermarkets, convenience stores, and grocery stores is offering an easy accessibility to biodegradable cutlery.
