Almost half of this production is single-use plastic of which 40% of plastic produced is used for packaging purposes. These figures are alarming. However, with the announcement of a blanket ban on single-use plastic in India, there has been a growing increase in sustainable packaging options. Sustainable packaging is the need of the hour which is the first step towards lowering the negative impact plastic is having on our environment. Consumers are willing to pay more for green while they are also ready to buy more sustainable packaging products. Moreover, the government\u2019s push for compulsory use of plastics with a minimum 120-micron thickness has generated the demand for sustainable packaging. This has led to an increase in demand for renewable raw materials like seaweed, corn <span style=\"color: #33cccc;\"><a style=\"color: #33cccc;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/books\/book\/complete-technology-book-on-starch-its-derivatives\/isbn-8178330733\/zb,,51,a,0,0,a\/index.html\">starch<\/a>,<\/span> organic fabrics, wood, paperboard, paper, and recycled cardboard.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit this Page for More Information: <\/strong><span style=\"color: #33cccc;\"><a style=\"color: #33cccc;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneurindia.co\/page\/biodegradable-products-industry\/\"><strong>Start a Business in Biodegradable Products Industry<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>How is sustainable packaging achieved?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sustainable packaging refers to packaging with an environmental footprint that reduces with time.

Here is a list of the top sustainable raw materials used for packaging.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Bagasse &#8211; <\/strong>This is made from natural sugar cane fibers and is considered an eco-friendly, renewable, and sustainable raw material. Bagasse is gaining popularity as a disposable tableware product that can be composted easily. The bagasse plates market is emerging as a favorite food packaging solution among customers due to its unique features like durability, sturdiness, and a better lifespan. Bagasse tableware products and food packaging material is trendy and excels as a green alternative to polystyrene and Styrofoam tableware products. The global market of bagasse tableware products is set to expand at 6.8% CAGR between 2021 to 2031 as compared to 4.6% CAGR during 2015-2020.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read Similar Articles: <\/strong><span style=\"color: #33cccc;\"><a style=\"color: #33cccc;\" href=\"https:\/\/npcsblog.wordpress.com\/category\/biodegradable-products\/\"><strong>BIODEGRADABLE PRODUCTS<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Corn Starch &#8211; <\/strong>Corn starch bags make an excellent replacement and are 30% stronger than polythene bags.

On average, almost 5% to 7% of corn production in India is estimated to go into starch. This estimate implies an annual production of 1.5 \u2013 2 MMT of corn starch. Hence, the corn starch as packaging raw material is quite sufficient. Till 2018, the Indian corn starch market generated a revenue of around 1.37 billion with an expected rise of 3.9% CAGR during 2019-2025.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Paperboard &#8211;<\/strong> Paperboard packaging is the preferred choice for the packaged food industry which is made from wood pulp as the basic material.
