The thermoplastic starch (TPS) market has grown significantly over the past decade owing to the increasing use of TPS in bioplastics manufacturing. TPS is a biodegradable thermoplastic material produced from starch, a renewable resource that is fully biodegradable. TPS has gained widespread acceptance as an eco-friendly alternative to conventional petroleum-based plastics owing to its renewability, biodegradability, flexible moldability, and excellent mechanical properties. TPS can be easily processed like conventional plastics using techniques such as injection molding, extrusion, and thermoforming. Major end-use applications of TPS include food packaging, food service wares, disposable tablewares, and Shopping bags among others.

The Global Thermoplastic Starch (TPS) Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 268.89 Billion in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.6% over the forecast period 2024 To 2031.
