PHA Production Stagnation Scenario

BioLaMer — 2025-05-27 10:35:17 UTC

We are in the year 2030, and PHA global production capacity is the same as it was in 2025, stabilizing at 1,8 thousand tonnes per year. This stagnation has been driven by minor scientific and technological breakthroughs, and weak regulatory support, maintaining average selling price at approximately 15,3€/Kg. This selling price is 71% higher than the selling price of Polylactic Acid (PLA), a direct competitor of PHA that offers worse biodegradability and biocompatibility potential.

PHA Production Decline Scenario

BioLaMer — 2025-05-27 10:35:31 UTC

We are in the year 2030, and PHA global production capacity is lower than it was in 2025, decreasing from 1,8 to 0,9 thousand tonnes per year (i.e., 50% lower). This decline has been driven by absence of scientific and technological breakthroughs, and unfavourable regulatory support, increasing average selling price from approximately 15,3€/Kg in 2025 to 23€/Kg in 2030 (i.e., a selling price increase of 50%). This selling price is 411% higher than the selling price of Polylactic Acid (PLA), a direct competitor of PHA that offers worse biodegradability and biocompatibility potential.

PHA Production Growth Scenario

BioLaMer — 2025-06-02 13:14:44 UTC

We are in the year 2030, and PHA global production capacity is higher than it was in 2025, increasing from 1,8 to 3,8 thousand tonnes per year (i.e., 111% higher). This growth has been driven by major scientific and technological breakthroughs, and favourable regulatory support, reducing average selling price from approximately 15,3€/Kg in 2025 to 4,5€/Kg in 2030 (i.e., a selling price reduction of 71%). This is the same selling price as Polylactic Acid (PLA), a direct competitor of PHA that offers worse biodegradability and biocompatibility potential.
