North America has maintained its dominance in the global biopolymers market over the past decade and remains the largest regional market with 37.8% share in 2024. The U.S. is home to several fortune 500 companies that are major players in the bioplastics industry. Strong government support through regulatory policies promoting sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics has driven extensive R&D and commercialization of biopolymers in the region. Many biopolymer manufacturers are shifting production capacities to the North American region to better serve the local market. The automotive, packaging and healthcare industries in the U.S. and Canada have also increased the adoption of biopolymers for their strong focus on reducing carbon footprint.

The Asia Pacific region has emerged as the fastest growing market for biopolymers globally in recent years. Countries like China, India, Indonesia, and Thailand have seen explosive growth in their economies and manufacturing capabilities. This industrial expansion has significantly boosted the demand for bioplastics as well. The presence of abundant natural resources and cheap labor availability makes Asia Pacific an attractive production base for biopolymer companies. Many leading European players have established production plants in the major Asian economies. Additionally, the large and growing domestic consumer markets in the region for packaged food, healthcare, and other consumer products drives biopolymer consumption. With sustained double-digit GDP growth projected over the next decade, the Asia Pacific region is well-positioned to dominate the global biopolymers industry in the long term.
