  • Latest News- Biodegradable Medical Plastics Market: Medical devices is expected to lead the Application segment during 2025-2029

    The Biodegradable Medical Plastics Market is being driven by Growing geriatric population

    The Biodegradable Medical Plastics Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 712.4 million. The biodegradable medical plastics market is experiencing robust growth due to the increasing preference for eco-friendly and sustainable solutions in the healthcare sector. Manufacturers are leveraging plant-based raw materials, such as fruit skins, hemp, and sugarcane, to produce biodegradable medical plastics. Notably, the production of hemp-based plastics generates substantial waste, which can be repurposed to create additional hemp-derived biodegradable plastics. Similarly, sugarcane is processed into ethanol, which is then utilized to produce green polyethylene, a biodegradable alternative to conventional high-density polyethylene (HDPE), with comparable properties.
