The growing environmental issues around the globe have led to an increased demand for plastics based on biopolymers. These bio-based plastics are produced from biodegradable and renewable raw materials such as plant seeds, including sugarcane, soybean, wood pulp, maize, wheat, coffee, and castor. Such bio-based plastics will be increasingly used in industrial and consumer goods applications to decrease emissions and general carbon footprint considerably. The use of biodegradable packaging is further enhanced by corporate eco-friendly projects and the abundance of raw materials during the bioplastic production. Despite the useful features of standard plastics, the ongoing product advances by polymer producers will increase the acceptance of bio-plastic packaging.
