United States: Recent Industry Developments

✅ In November 2025, Braskem announced the expansion of its "I'm green" bio-based polypropylene production in the U.S. The material is derived from renewable feedstocks and is physically identical to fossil-based PP. It helps U.S. brands meet their 2030 sustainability targets.

✅ In October 2025, LyondellBasell launched a new line of bio-attributed polypropylene made from waste cooking oil. The product is certified under the ISCC PLUS mass balance approach. It offers a circular solution for U.S. packaging and automotive industries.

✅ In September 2025, a U.S. startup, Citroniq, broke ground on a new bio-polypropylene plant in the Midwest. The facility uses corn-based ethanol to produce carbon-negative plastic pellets. It leverages the region's agricultural abundance for industrial biomanufacturing.

✅ In August 2025, The Department of Energy awarded funding to a consortium developing enzyme-based recycling for bio-PP. The technology aims to ensure bio-based plastics can be effectively recycled at end-of-life. It supports the development of a sustainable plastics economy in the U.S.

Japan: Recent Industry Developments

✅ In December 2025, Mitsui Chemicals commenced commercial production of bio-polypropylene at its Osaka works. The production uses bio-naphtha from Neste to create drop-in renewable plastics. It is a key step in Mitsui's carbon neutrality roadmap.

✅ In November 2025, Toyota Boshoku adopted bio-based polypropylene for the door trim of a new hybrid vehicle model. The material reduces the vehicle's lifecycle carbon footprint without compromising safety. It showcases the automotive application of bioplastics in Japan.

✅ In October 2025, Prime Polymer Co., Ltd. launched a mass-balanced bio-PP grade for food packaging films. The film offers the same barrier properties as conventional PP but with lower CO2 emissions. It caters to the sustainability demands of Japanese retailers.

✅ In September 2025, Sumitomo Chemical partnered with a bioplastics firm to develop propylene from ethanol. The collaboration aims to establish a domestic supply chain for bio-based feedstock. It reduces Japan's reliance on imported fossil fuels for plastic production.

Bio-based Polypropylene Market: Drivers
The bio-based polypropylene market is growing as manufacturers and brands seek lower-carbon polymer solutions that maintain the performance and recyclability of conventional PP. Produced from renewable feedstocks (bio-naphtha, bio-propylene), these materials enable circularity ambitions while fitting into existing processing and recycling streams. Demand from packaging, automotive, consumer goods, and textiles sectors for sustainable polymer alternatives is driving commercial interest and pilot production. Lifecycle assessments, feedstock sourcing transparency, and compatibility with recycling infrastructure are key commercial considerations shaping market acceptance.

Innovation in catalytic routes, feedstock diversification (crop residues, waste oils), and drop-in production technologies is improving cost competitiveness and sustainability credentials. Brand commitments to reduced cradle-to-gate emissions and green product portfolios support adoption in consumer-facing applications. Regulatory incentives and corporate net-zero targets are accelerating investment in bio-based polymer capacity. As scalability improves, bio-based polypropylene is likely to become a mainstream low-carbon substitute in numerous industrial applications.
