Unlocking the Potential of Poly(butylene succinate): A Versatile Biodegradable Polymer for Various Industries

 

The global poly(butylene succinate) market value is expected to increase from USD 115,306.8 thousand in 2023 to USD 361,225.6 thousand by 2033. Global poly(butylene succinate) sales are anticipated to thrive at 12.1% CAGR during the assessment period.

Several factors are anticipated to drive global poly(butylene succinate) market growth. These include a rising preference for eco-friendly materials and growing demand for poly(butylene succinate) from packaging, agriculture, medical, and textile industries.

Today, consumers are shifting their preferences towards eco-friendly products, driving demand for materials that align with sustainability values. As a biodegradable and eco-friendly material, poly(butylene succinate) is used in various consumer products, including textiles, personal care items, and throwaway items.

The surging popularity of on-the-go packaged food items has led to a global rise in convenience food consumption. This surge is set to drive substantial demand for PBS in food packaging, fostering market growth over the forecast period. The rapid expansion of the medical industry is anticipated to fuel global demand for poly(butylene succinate). This is due to the rising usage of this material in several medical devices.

Among the petro-based and bio-based PBS, the latter segment is expected to thrive at a higher growth rate. This is due to the growing demand from packaging and agriculture industries. Rising environmental concerns and increasing awareness about plastic pollution will likely boost the demand for sustainable packaging solutions. This is expected to create growth opportunities for global poly(butylene succinate) manufacturers.

Asia Pacific is the leading manufacturer of poly(butylene succinate) owing to the low-cost manufacturing along with vast supply chains in this region. In contrast, the countries from North America and Europe dominate the consumption of PBS due to strict regulations in these markets.

Key Takeaways from the Poly(butylene Succinate) Market Report:

  • The global poly(butylene succinate) market is set to thrive at 1% CAGR through 2033.
  • By product type, the bio-based PBS segment is expected to hold around 85% market share by 2033.
  • By processing method, the extrusion process is predicted to hold about half of the market share by 2033.
  • Based on end-use industry, agriculture segment is forecast to thrive at 7% CAGR through 2033.
  • The United States market value is expected to reach US$ 86,868.9 thousand by 2033.
  • Sales revenue in Germany is projected to reach US$ 42,548.6 thousand by 2033.
