Biodegradable packaging is increasingly adopted by food brands to meet consumer demand for sustainability. Materials like PLA, PHAs, and starch-based plastics are used for containers, wraps, and trays, offering eco-friendly alternatives to traditional plastics. Innovations in bio-based coatings and smart packaging enhance shelf life and reduce waste. Major brands like Chipotle and A&W Canada use compostable bowls and cups, while advancements in algae-based and mushroom packaging show promise. Challenges include cost and scalability, but growing regulations and consumer awareness drive market growth. The global biodegradable packaging market is projected to reach USD 391.3 billion by 2035.[](https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/reports/biodegradable-food-packaging-market)
