The microplastics market is undergoing a transformative shift driven by heightened environmental concerns, regulatory changes, and technological innovation. As microplastic pollution awareness rises, industries are moving from traditional synthetic polymers to sustainable alternatives, presenting both challenges and opportunities. The market primarily includes applications in personal care, agriculture, and industrial sectors, with primary microplastics like polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene prevalent. Regulatory measures, such as the EU's REACH Regulation, are accelerating the phase-out of conventional microplastics, boosting demand for alternatives like natural exfoliants and biodegradable polymers. These alternatives face technical and economic hurdles, with higher costs and manufacturing challenges. However, the push toward sustainable materials is driving innovation.
