The PLA Market is being driven by increased sustainability and reduced dependence on oil-based products as there is no other commercially equivalent or better bio plastic alternative available currently. Further technical advancement in production capabilities and enhancing properties of polymers will be fueling the growth. PLA has been seen as an alternative for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) due to its mechanical properties such as low impact strength, hardness, stiffness, and elasticity. The major hurdle that is currently inhibiting the growth of the market is supply limitations, and prices of PLA that are more than the fossil fuel-based polymers.

The global Poly Lactic Acid Market for was estimated to be worth $1,194.0 million in 2010 and is expected to reach $3,831.3 million by 2016, growing at a CAGR of 18.7% from 2011 to 2016. Packaging is the largest application market for PLA, accounting for 60% of the overall market in 2010.
