According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "Bio-plasticizers Market Report by Product (Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO), Castor Oil-Based Plasticizers, Citrates, Succinic Acid, and Others), Application (Packaging Materials, Consumer Goods, Automotive and Transport, Building and Construction, Textiles, Agriculture and Horticulture, and Others), and Region 2024-2032," the global bio-plasticizers market size reached US$ 1.4 Billion in 2023. Bio-plasticizers are polymer additives derived from renewable sources, including vegetable oil and biomass. It is considered to be a substitute for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and finds its primary application in diverse end-user industries, including building and construction, electronics, and automotive industries. It helps improve the flexibility, softness, workability, and volatility of plasticized materials. It is incorporated into a material to increase its durability, flexibility, tear resistance, and workability. It lowers the second-order transition temperature of micro-molecules, elastic modulus, density, tensile strength, hardness, and melt viscosity of the material, thereby making it resilient and soft. It is widely used in PVC cables, resins, wire jacketing, vinyl flooring, medical equipment, automobile parts, packaging materials, and consumer goods.
Global Bio-plasticizers Market Trends:
The global market is primarily driven by an enhanced focus on sustainable development. In line with this, bio-plasticizers help reduce the carbon footprint, due to which it is widely gaining prominence as a preferred alternative for PVC. Additionally, the growing awareness regarding the adverse effects of using conventional plasticizers has led several consumers to switch to bio-plasticizers, thereby favoring the market growth. Apart from this, rapid innovations in bio-plasticizers resulting in improved product variants with lower costs is creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the escalating demand for bio-based plastic additives as the substitute for phthalate-based polymers across various industries is catalyzing the product demand. Besides, the shifting inclination of consumers toward new, low-toxic, and low-migration natural-based plasticizers to substitute petro-based options is propelling the market. Other factors, including the imposition of a ban on phthalate-based plasticizers and the rapid uptake of bio-plasticizers in the construction sector, are further providing a boost to the market. On account of the factors above, the market is anticipated to reach a value of US$ 2.3 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.6% during 2024-2032.
