Polylactic Acid (PLA) Price Trend, Index, History and Forecast
Price Highlights (As of mid-2025)
• Northeast Asia: PLA prices declined to around $2.20 per kg due to softer demand from packaging and textile sectors, coupled with oversupply from abundant feedstock availability.
• Europe: Prices softened to approximately $2.87 per kg amidst weak consumption across packaging and bioplastic converters, further pressured by competitive imports and easing raw material costs.
• Southeast Asia: The steepest price drop occurred here, falling to about $2.31 per kg, driven by subdued demand in packaging, film, and industrial applications.
• North America: The only region seeing a modest uptick to roughly $2.35 per kg, supported by improving demand in packaging and food industries as well as increasing interest in sustainable bio-based plastics.
Market Developments and Trends
• The first half of 2025 saw PLA markets diverging globally: Europe showed steady price increases fueled by environmental regulations and strong policy incentives for biodegradable packaging; conversely, Asia struggled against oversupply and muted end-user uptake.
• Increasing investment in renewable feedstocks and growing government support for sustainable materials continue to shape PLA pricing dynamics worldwide.
• Supply expansions and improving logistics in Asia have tempered price gains despite demand recovering in certain pockets.
• Emerging applications in textiles, agriculture, and biomedical sectors add incremental demand prospects over the mid to long term.
Forecast Outlook
• PLA is forecasted to continue its growth momentum with expected global market valuation rising from just over $1 billion in 2024 to approximately $3.9 billion by 2033, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) near 14%.
• Regional price discrepancies may persist driven by local feedstock costs, policy differences, infrastructure investments, and evolving consumer preferences towards biodegradables.
• Regulatory impetus and advances in PLA processing technologies are predicted to maintain sustained demand expansion, particularly in packaging and disposable consumer product segments.
