2020 was a promising year for bio-based polymers
In 2020, the total production volume of bio-based
polymers was 4.2 million tonnes (1% of the total
production volume of fossil-based polymers)
The CAGR is, with 8%, significantly higher than the
overall growth of polymers (3–4 %) – this is expected
to continue until 2025
-
Overall, the global land requirement for bio-based
polymers is only 0.006 % of the global agricultural
land
