Starch based biodegradable plastics are forecast to have a market value amounting to approximately 744 million U.S. dollars in 2025. Biodegradable plastics are projected to help mitigate the environmental issues associated with conventional, single-use plastics, though biodegradable plastics have a few shortcomings as well. The leading end-use sector of biodegradable plastics is packaging, both flexible and rigid.
