- Bio-based construction polymers, derived from renewable sources such as plant-based materials, are increasingly integral to sustainable construction practices, offering eco-friendly alternatives for applications such as pipes, insulation, and profiles due to their reduced environmental impact and enhanced durability
- The surge in demand is fueled by growing adoption of green building standards, rising environmental consciousness, and the need for energy-efficient construction materials
- Asia-Pacific dominated the bio-based construction polymer market with the largest revenue share of 37.9% in 2024, driven by rapid urbanization, large-scale infrastructure projects, and government initiatives promoting sustainable construction in countries such as China, Japan, and India
- Europe is expected to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period, propelled by stringent environmental regulations, increasing investments in green building technologies, and growing consumer preference for sustainable materials
- The polyethylene terephthalate (PET) segment dominated the largest market revenue share of 49.5% in 2024, driven by its renewability, recyclability, and stability as a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based plastics, particularly in applications such as films and fibers for construction. Its adoption is further supported by volatility in petroleum prices, encouraging manufacturers to shift toward bio-based alternatives
