The United States "Nature Works" is the world's largest manufacturer
From the perspective of production capacity, Nature Works in the United States is currently the world’s largest polylactic acid manufacturer.
In 2020, it will have an annual production capacity of 160,000 tons of polylactic acid, accounting for about 41% of the total global production capacity, followed by Total Corbion in the Netherlands.
The production capacity is 75,000 tons, which accounts for approximately 19% of the production capacity
.
In China, the production of polylactic acid is still in its infancy.
There are not many production lines that have been built and put into production, and most of them are small in scale.
The main production companies include Jilin COFCO, Hisun Bio, etc.
, while Jindan Technology and Anhui Fengyuan Group The production capacity of companies such as Guangdong Kingfa Technology are still under construction or planned
