2. Plastaro :
the roadmap to future

3. Our target sector
Hospitals are one of the largest producers of waste, much of which needs to go through
complex processing to neutralize toxic or infectious byproducts. WHO estimates that
in high-income countries, approximately 0.5 kg of waste is produced per hospital bed
per day
A healthcare-acquired infection (HAI) is commonly defined as any infection that is
contracted while receiving any form of healthcare. HAIs are a seemingly unavoidable
consequence of the modern healthcare system, which is designed to house and treat the
most at-risk populations
Medical disposables are single-use products that can include everything from gloves to
face masks, needles, and blood bags. These products can replace equipment that
typically undergoes a time-consuming and costly sterilization procedure, despite still
resulting in frequent HAIs. Despite conventional knowledge suggesting that reusable
products would be more expensive over time, the cost of the sterilization procedure
coupled with the additional costs associated with extended hospital visits offsets the
bulk of the expense.

4. Feasible solution
Faced with these two obstacles — a need for single-use disposables and a simultaneous
waste management crisis — the healthcare industry is being forced to innovate. Using
new materials and processes can help reduce the environmental impact of hospitals
while still driving down the rate of HAIs. The use of biodegradable materials is
emerging as a clear path forward, providing a viable alternative for traditional
materials like plastics and textiles. Biodegradable materials, and specifically plastics,
are typically produced using more environmentally friendly means compared with
traditional plastics
Bioplastics act as sustainable alternatives to plastics that utilize renewable biomass
sources such as agricultural and food waste or used plastics. However, not all
bioplastics are biodegradable. Instead, they persist as long as traditional plastics in the
environment, hurting marine life in the process. This is why materials startups develop
a range of biodegradable polymers as alternatives to plastics

6. Product range we offer:-
we create a water-soluble, transparent, and biodegradable bioplastic
solution. The startup’s bioplastic is as versatile as traditional plastics and is
heat-sealable. Furthermore, it is heat shrinkable as well as resistant in humid
environments, adding to its suitability for packaging solutions. Moreover,
the bioplastic is compostable and degrades completely in seawater within 20
days.
PLA, a type of thermoplastic polymer, which is produced using
fermentation. It utilizes manufacturing equipment for traditional plastics,
making it easier for plastic manufacturers to transition to bioplastics. While
being less carbon-intensive, it delivers the same performance as
conventional polymers.
PHA is a biopolymer that is actually created by microorganisms that convert
organic material into a polymer byproduct. In its harvested state it can be
utilized for many medical consumables, most notably for surgical sutures
and meshes. Taking a broader view of hospital waste, PHAs are ideal
candidates to be used for single-use food-grade packaging.

viz. joint ventures, strategic alliances, mergers
and acquisitions, new product developments, and
R&Ds in the India Bio plastics Market.

8. Secondary Market
research
• The overarching problem of climate change and the expected
future shortage of fossil resources have accelerated the search
for better concepts for plastics packaging. Bioplastics packaging
offers the same qualities as conventional packaging. It also
offers greater sustainability.
• There is a high demand for bioplastic packaging for wrapping
organic food, as well as premium and branded products with
specific requirements. A combination of recycling components
from conventional plastics, such as rPET with bioplastics (bio-
based PET), provides high-performance processing of
bioplastics packaging. Biodegradable food packaging, certified
as industrially compostable, was the first successfully
commercialized bioplastic product.
• Bioplastic's applications are increasing for cosmetics packaging
of compact powders, creams, and lipsticks, as well as beverage
bottles. The materials, such as PLA, bio-based PE, or bio-based
PET, are used in this section. The high percentage of bio-based
material in these products, as well as the ability to combine
them with recyclates from conventional PE and PET, resulted in
a decisive increase in resource efficiency and the reduction of
CO2 emissions. These factors are expected to boost the market's
growth in the future.

9. Global market overview
The biodegradable plastic packaging market was valued at USD 2.77 billion in 2020
and expected to reach USD 8.53 billion by 2026 and grow at a CAGR of 20.7% over
the forecast period (2021 - 2026).
The increasing environmental concerns regarding plastic usage (as plastics contain
toxic pollutants that harm plants, animals, and people) are driving the use of
biodegradable plastic alternatives. Floating plastic waste that survives thousands of
years in water can serve as a transportation device for invasive species that disrupt
habitats. This aforementioned factor is contributing to the growth of the market.
The stringent regulations by various governments and federal agencies with an
objective to reduce plastic waste and promote biodegradable plastics usage in
packaging are boosting the demand of this market. The regulations related to green
packaging is increasing. As a result, various FMCG companies are required to adopt
biodegradable packaging to comply with the standards, which in turn, is propelling the
growth of this market.
However, high costs (compared to normal plastic) are restraining the growth of the
market, as biodegradable plastic is made from plants' starch and its decomposition
needs specific conditions, like temperature, bacteria, humidity, etc. (which may not be
available in most of the dump yards and landfills).
