In a recent search, I came across a nice presentation from Keith Edwards of the BASF company, which was delivered at the May2007 SPI Film & Bag Federation meeting in Florida. The title of the presentation is also quite interesting - “Biodegradable and Renewable Materials: Do they exist? Are they here to stay?“. What caught my eye was the following Table which provides a pretty good list of different companies emerging in the bioplastics arena -
I was already aware of Natureworks, Metabolix, Novamont, Stanelco and BASF as I wrote about them in my post Bioplastics Production Capacity Building Up (May12, 2007). This table provides a much more complete list. Clearly, there are quite a few players in the game and the industry dynamics is beginning to get interesting.
