ポリ乳酸(PLA)材料は、一般に入手可能な熱可塑性ポリマー材料とは異なります。主にトウモロコシデンプンやサトウキビなどの再生可能な資源から得られます。PLAは、他の生分解性ポリマーと比較して比較的安価であり、いくつかの有益な機械的特性を備えているため、人気のある材料となっています。2019年の時点で、PLAの生産能力は約29万トンでした。PLAは、他の生分解性ポリマーと比較して比較的安価であり、いくつかの有益な機械的特性を備えているため、人気のある材料となっています。2019年の時点で、PLAの生産能力は約29万トンでした。PLAの生産は、キャッサバ、ジャガイモ、トウモロコシ、サトウキビなどの植物原料に大きく依存しています。農業副産物、セルロース材料、温室効果ガス(二酸化炭素やメタンなど)などの他の種類の原料も研究され、調査されてきました。しかし、この技術はまだ開発中であり、農産物は当面の間、デンプン混合物や PLA の主な原料として使用され続けると思われます。
繊維、包装、農業などの最終用途部門における PLA の需要増加が、ポリ乳酸市場の成長の主な要因です。さらに、従来のポリマーと比較してポリ乳酸の炭素排出量が少ないことが、世界的な需要を促進しています。さらに、フレキシブル包装製品の需要増加がポリ乳酸市場の成長を後押ししています。包装部門は、包装食品、スナック、すぐに食べられる (RTE) 食事、その他の品目の需要増加により活況を呈しています。その結果、急速に発展する包装業界により、予測期間中に PLA の需要が増加すると予想されます。

しかし、原材料価格の高騰により他のポリマーに比べて生産コストが高く、ポリ乳酸市場の成長が制限されています。ポリ乳酸は生分解性で工業的に堆肥化可能なポリマーであり、透明性、光沢、剛性などの機能品質を組み合わせることで現在のポリマーと競合する最初の再生可能ポリマーの1つです。食品包装、使い捨て食器、繊維、石油・ガス、電子機器、自動車、3D印刷は、ポリ乳酸を採用している業界のほんの一部です。ポリ乳酸の用途は多様で適応性が高く、セクター間でのポリ乳酸の使用とポリ乳酸の多機能性により、予測期間中にポリ乳酸市場はかなりの成長機会が見込まれます。
技術の進歩、先進国からの技術移転、発展途上国における高い消費者需要により、包装、繊維、電子産業における新たな事業が今後生まれます。これらの産業におけるポリ乳酸の需要は、発展途上国における市場成長の重要な原動力です。
生分解性製品の生産と使用に対する世界中の政府の関心と取り組みの高まりは、世界のポリ乳酸市場の成長を牽引する主な要因です。さらに、先進国と新興国の政府は、近い将来に対象産業の成長を促進すると予想されるポリ乳酸の生産に補助金を支給しています。さらに、環境安全と汚染防止のために、従来のプラスチックよりもバイオプラスチックを好む利害関係者が増えていることも、予測期間中に世界市場の成長を促進する主な要因の1つです。さらに、シャンプー、クリームなどのパーソナルケア製品の製造のための化粧品業界からのポリ乳酸の需要の高まりは、今後数年間で対象市場の成長をサポートすると予想されます。
The polylactic acid market size had crossed USD 0.52 billion in 2020 and will observe a CAGR of more than 16% up to 2029 driven by the increase in demand for PLA in end-use sectors, such as textiles, packaging, and agriculture.
North America held more than 42% of the polylactic acid market revenue share in 2020 due to the high demand for bioplastics, which is one of the largest markets for PLA. Moreover, several initiatives promoting environmentally-friendly products by the regional government are supporting market growth.
The upcoming trends in polylactic acid market are the technological advancement, technological transfer from developed countries and high consumer demand in developing countries.
The global polylactic acid market registered a CAGR of 16% from 2022 to 2029. The packaging segment was the highest revenue contributor to the market, with 0.20 billion in 2020, and is estimated to reach 0.70 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 15%.
Key players profiled in the report include Total Corbion PLA, Nature Works LLC, COFCO, Futerro, Jiangxi Keyuan Bio-Material Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Hisun Biomaterials Co., Ltd., Shanghai Tong-Jie-Liang Biomaterials Co., Ltd., Corbion Purac, Hisun Biomaterials, Synbra Technology bv.
Leading application of polylactic acid market are hospitals. Hospitals hold a significant share of the polylactic acid market due to increasing accessibility and affordability in health care system.
North America is expected to hold the largest market share in terms of revenue, during the forecast period. The growth is attributed to high demand for bioplastics, which is one of the largest markets for PLA. Moreover, several initiatives promoting environmentally-friendly products by the regional government are supporting market growth.
The global polylactic acids market is segmented based on end use and region. Based on end user industry, packaging, textile, agricultural, electronics, bio-medical and others. The packaging end-use segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 36% in 2020, owing to the wide utilization of PLA in the manufacturing of bottles, jars, and containers, as well as in fresh food packaging solutions. The inclination of consumers towards sustainable packaging and rising environmental concerns across the globe are compelling manufacturers to use the product in various packaging solutions.
The packaging industry is one of the major consumers of PLA, especially in the food packaging sector. PLA plastic bottles are durable, disposable, and possess properties such as transparency and gloss. In addition, a strict ban on single-use plastics in many countries, such as the U.K., Zimbabwe, New Zealand, Taiwan, and several states of the U.S. (such as Hawaii, New York, and California), is significantly driving the product demand in the packaging end-use segment.
Moreover, PLA can be easily composted as compared to petroleum-based products and does not emit toxic gases on incineration; thus, its demand in this application area is expected to remain strong over the forecast period. Bioplastic packaging, including rigid packaging and loose-fill packaging, has witnessed considerable regulatory support on account of the need for reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions.
Textile is another important sector having high market penetration and a high growth rate as PLA helps in manufacturing smooth fabrics. In addition, PLA provides excellent moisture resistance, drapability, breathability, and durability. These benefits are anticipated to propel its demand in the global textile industry over the forecast period.
