Analysis of the supply and demand status, competitive landscape and development prospects of the global polylactic acid market in 2021

Supply and demand of the global polylactic acid industry

Polylactic acid (PLA) is a new type of bio-based material, which is widely used in clothing manufacturing, construction, medical and health and other fields.

In terms of supply, the global production capacity of polylactic acid will be nearly 400,000 tons in 2020.

1.

The application prospect of polylactic acid industry is broad

Polylactic acid (PLA) is a new type of bio-based material with good biodegradability, biocompatibility, thermal stability, solvent resistance and easy processing.

It is widely used in clothing manufacturing, construction, and medical and health care.

2.

In 2020, the global production capacity of polylactic acid will be nearly 400,000 tons

At present, as an environmentally friendly bio-based biodegradable material, polylactic acid has a good application prospect, and global production capacity continues to increase.

According to statistics from the European Bioplastics Association, in 2019, the global production capacity of polylactic acid is about 271,300 tons; in 2020, the production capacity will increase to 394,800 tons.

3.

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.

　　In my country, 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.
