Biodegradable plastics are plastics that are can be decomposed by the action of living organisms, usually bacteria. Two basic classes of biodegradable plastics exist: Bioplastics, whose components are derived from renewable raw materials, and plastics made from petrochemicals containing biodegradable additives which enhance biodegradation. "Biodegradable" broadly means that an object can be biologically broken down, while "compostable" typically specifies that such a process will result in compost, or humus. The waste management infrastructure currently recycles regular plastic waste, incinerates it, or places it in a landfill. Mixing biodegradable plastics into the regular waste infrastructure poses some dangers to the environment.

Amongst Type, Polylactic acid (PLA) segment accounted for significant market share during the forecast period due to demand from major packaging materials in industries such as food & beverages, textiles and tissue engineering. While, the starch-blend segment of type dominates the market during the forecast period. Europe is anticipated to be the largest market for biodegradable plastics due to rising packed food products along with increasing electronic and pharmaceutical industry and strict implementation of environmental regulations.

Some of the key players in Biodegradable Plastics Market include Amcor, BASF SE, Biome Technologies PLC, Bio-On SRL., Biopac, Corbion N.V., Meredian Inc., Metabolix Inc., Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, NatureWorks LLC, Plantic Technologies Ltd. and Tianan Biologic Materials Co. Ltd.
