Rising consumer awareness, expanding composting infrastructure, and government initiatives like the U.S. 2030 Food Loss and Waste Reduction Goal are further propelling market growth. The U.S. maintains a leadership position, driven by high demand in bio-based flexible packaging and medical sector applications, whereas Canada shows strong potential growth in the textile sector, especially for smart and technical fabrics using biodegradable plastics.​

Key Highlights from the Report

➤ Market size projected to reach USD 1,039.4 million by 2030 at 9.6% CAGR.​

➤ Packaging application segment leads market share and will continue its dominance.​

➤ Starch-based and polylactic acid (PLA) plastics are the largest product-type segments.​

➤ U.S. market to see significant expansion due to demand in food packaging and medical uses.​

➤ Ongoing infrastructure upgrades support increased compostable bag and bio-bag consumption.​

➤ Companies developing safer, antibacterial PLA for medical PPE, boosting sector innovation.​

Market Segmentation

Biodegradable plastics in North America are primarily segmented by product type and application. Starch-based plastics, derived from abundant feedstocks such as potato, corn, and wheat, dominate due to their cost-effectiveness and wide use in food packaging. PLA, manufactured from sugarcane and cornstarch, is strong but brittle and processed by conventional methods, making it attractive for packaging, textiles, and emerging medical products. PBAT and PBS provide added flexibility and thermal stability, finding use in food packaging, agriculture mulch films, medical equipment, and technical textiles.​

The packaging segment remains the largest application category, utilized for food & beverage, personal care, and homecare goods. In agriculture, biodegradable plastics are used for protective films, seed belts, plant baskets, and mulch films. Consumer goods applications are showing high growth, especially in electronics casings and household appliances, while the textile segment, including smart fabrics and automotive technical textiles in Canada, presents additional demand opportunities.​

Regional Insights

The U.S. continues to be the central hub for North America's biodegradable plastics market, benefitting from strong adoption in packaging, medical equipment, and enhanced composting infrastructure. Bio-bags and PLA-based packaging drive high growth, supported by government regulations aimed at reducing landfill waste. Canada, meanwhile, witnesses growth in biodegradable technical textiles, smart fabrics, and automotive interiors, responding to rising demand in advanced material applications. Expanding composting networks and sustainability mandates are positioning both markets to capitalize on future demand spikes from flexible packaging, medical, and textile sectors.​

Market Dynamics

Market Drivers

Key growth drivers include increased urbanization and the shift towards renewable, bio-based products across several industries. The surge in demand for sustainable flexible packaging, rising environmental awareness, and regulatory initiatives to reduce landfill and food waste further support market expansion. Companies prioritize research and innovation in PBS, PBAT, and PLA composites for safer packaging and medical uses, including antibacterial PPE.​

Market Restraints

High production costs, limited composting infrastructure in some regions, and challenges in recycling certain biodegradable materials restrict more rapid market penetration. Lack of consistent labeling standards and slower adoption beyond the packaging sector are additional hurdles for broader integration into agriculture and electronics.​

Market Opportunities

Expanding composting infrastructure, medical sector innovation (antibacterial PPE), and product enhancements in technical textile and consumer goods sectors present substantial growth opportunities. U.S. and Canadian government mandates, combined with evolving consumer preferences, encourage new product launches and drive market innovation in bio-based flexible packaging and advanced applications.​
