United States Biodegradable Food Service Disposables Market Report

US biodegradable food service disposables market reached a value of US$ 477 Million in 2018. Biodegradable food service disposables include cups, bowls, containers, plates, cutleries, etc. They are generally made from naturally-occurring substances such as sugarcane fibre (Bagasse), corn starch, wheat bran, bamboo, etc.  In the United States, increasing environmental concerns due to the rising usage of paper and plastic disposables have created a strong demand for biodegradable food service disposables.

Biodegradable food service disposables unlike paper and plastics are completely biodegradable and upon degradation release valuable nutrients into soil, thereby making it more fertile. Hence, they can be disposed into the landfill and can avoid the cost burden related to solid waste disposal. Moreover, they release significantly lower greenhouse gasses during the production process compared to plastic and paper disposables. Additionally, the US government is also playing a major role in driving the demand of these products through regulations such as a ban on plastics and incentivizing the use of completely biodegradable food service disposables. Moreover, regulations on food contact materials have also encouraged the use of these materials, instead of plastics. Other factors which are driving the market of biodegradable food service disposables in the US include easy availability of raw materials, lack of recycling facilities for paper and plastic disposables, rising consumer awareness, etc.
