The Versatility and Durability of Asphalt: More Than Just a Road Surface

When we think of asphalt, our minds often conjure images of smooth road surfaces stretching into the distance. However, the uses and benefits of asphalt go far beyond just paving roads. In this blog post, we'll explore the versatility and durability of asphalt, shedding light on its various applications and the importance of proper maintenance. The Basics of Asphalt Asphalt, also known as bitumen, is a sticky, black, and highly viscous liquid or semi-solid form of petroleum. It is a crucial component in the construction industry, primarily used for paving roads, driveways, and parking lots. Its popularity stems from its cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, and exceptional durability. Beyond Roads - Surprising Applications While roads are the most common application of asphalt, its uses extend into various surprising areas. For instance, asphalt shingles are a popular roofing material due to their weather resistance and longevity. Additionally, it's used in the construction...

Bio-Based Polypropylene Market Outlook On Rising Application, Revolutionary Trends & Potential Growth

The global bio-based polypropylene market     size is projected to reach USD 996.9 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 39.9% during the forecast period. Fortune Business Insights™ shares this information in its report, titled “Bio-Based Polypropylene Market, 2021-2028”. As per the report, the value of this market was USD 68.5 million in 2020.

Growing Concerns over Plastic Pollution to Create Huge Demand for Bio-based Polymers

The waste generated by synthetic polymers across the globe has become a critical environmental issue today. While governments are taking stringent measures, plastic pollution continues unimpeded. A 2019 research study by the University of Barcelona found that polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyethylene are the most abundant microplastics floating around in the Mediterranean coasts.

Further, Greenpeace states that globally only 9% of plastic gets recycled. The ecological hazards caused by plastics have heightened the need to find alternatives and it is in this context that bio-based PP has gained significance. Biodegradable PP is made from natural sources such as corn, sugarcane, and other renewable biomass. As a result, they generate minimal waste and can be reused and recycled, making them the perfect substitute for synthetically formulated plastics.

COVID-19 Impact

The bio-based polypropylene market growth is facing hurdles because of the COVID-19 pandemic. With governments imposing strict social distancing measures and restricting cross-border trade activities, supply chains across industries have been disrupted, affecting manufacturing operations worldwide. The automotive and the construction industries, in particular, are bearing the brunt of these restrictions, with several auto plants being forced to close down and construction projects getting delayed or canceled. As a result, the growth of the bio-PP market is getting inhibited.

List of the Leading Companies Profiled in the Global Bio-Based Polypropylene Market are:

  • Braskem (U.S.)
  • Neste Oyj (Finland)
  • LyondellBasell Industries Holdings B.V. (The Netherlands)
  • Borealis AG (Austria)
  • NaturePlast (France)
  • Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. (Japan)

Highlights of the Report

The bio-based PP market report contains actionable insights into the factors and trends shaping the growth trajectory of the market. The report also incorporates a comprehensive analysis of the market restraints and an in-depth evaluation of all market segments.

Driving Factor

Active Collaborations between Market Players to Drive Growth

The growing urgency for polymers derived from organic sources is pushing companies in this market to collaborate with different entities to speed up and enhance the development of bio-based polypropylene and other such polymers. In 2018, for instance, Neste joined forces with Ikea to initiate the production of bio-based PP on a commercial scale. The aim behind this venture is to aid Ikea fully substitute the plastics used in its products with renewable materials by 2030.

Neste also partnered with LyondellBasell in June 2019 to pilot the first-ever commercial-scale simultaneous production of bio-PP and bio-polyethylene in Germany. The leading role played by these organizations in advancing biodegradable polymer production technologies is supporting the establishment of a circular plastic economy, which also favors this market.
