Mergers and acquisitions have also impacted the Global Biodegradable Plastic market. For instance, In July 2021, Solvay acquired the global coating business of Bayer AG, having facilities in France, Brazil, and the U.S. The acquisition strengthened the sustainable and bio-based solutions in the company’s portfolio. The whole product portfolio and research & development projects from Bayer AG have been shifted to Solvay. In April 2021, NatureWorks announced a new strategic partnership with IMA Coffee, which is a market leader in coffee handling processing and packaging. This partnership aims at increasing the market reach for high-performing compostable K-cup in North America. Furthermore, in February 2020, BASF and Fabbri Group (Italy) formed a joint venture to develop a sustainable solution for cling film used in fresh-food packaging. The film will be used in wrapping meat, seafood, and fresh fruits & vegetables. It will be made by the Fabbri group with BASF's Ecovio bioplastic and will boost the demand for biodegradable plastics in packaging applications.
The global biodegradable plastics market witnessed slow growth for the year 2020, owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. A complete ban on imports and export disrupted the supply chain and hampered the market globally. However, the market condition is expected to get better in 2022, thereby restoring growth over the forecast period. The market is primarily driven by the increasing usage of Biodegradable Plastics in packaging, automotive, and other industries. Though the market is moderately competitive with over ~300 participants, few regional players control the dominant share and country-niche players also hold a significant share.
