Key Insights

The global Polylactic Acid (PLA) Market is set to witness excellent growth over the next several years. The market is projected to reach USD 3,443.3 Thousand by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. Polylactic Acid or PLA is a thermoplastic polymer that is environmentally degradable and belongs to the family of biodegradable polymers and is produced from renewable resources such as cornstarch or cane sugar. In detail, this ecological polymer can be defined by comparing it to traditional plastics and showing how it is environmentally advantageous. PLA can be used in many forms such as injection molding grade, film grade and fiber grade based on the demands of respective industries. Some of the remarkable characteristics of PLA include high transparency levels, ease of processing, and biodegradability when disposed of in composting facilities. Applications of PLA span multiple industries: This material is adopted in packaging materials, disposable tableware uses, agricultural films as well as 3D printing purposes. The other areas that take advantage of PLA include its use in the manufacturing of sutures and drug delivery systems since PLA is biocompatible. The advantage to be taken of PLA is high – less reliance on fossil resources, less emission of greenhouse gases, and fewer problems with waste disposal as it breaks down in industrial composting plants.
