Zenith' s 2007 Drinks Biopackaging report is based on detailed research into the opportunities and threats facing the underdeveloped yet emerging use of bioplastics for the beverage industry. Zenith' s outline findings are that:

• In order to implement a shift towards biodegradable packaging, the global beverage industry requires the support of government and municipal bodies at a country-by-country level.
• A reduction in sales tax on drinks biopackaging would help present economies of scale for what remains an embryonic industry.
• In addition, the beverage industry requires government-backed programmes to maximise the use of compostable plastic bottles, and ensure that the necessary infrastructure is put in place.
• Biopackaging does present a genuine opportunity for increased sustainability in drinks packaging. Yet, the beverage industry requires appropriate support and necessary systems to separate bioplastics from existing PET recycling and waste management processes.
• Separated bioplastic bottles would then need to be integrated into large scale commercial composting facilities.
• Bioplastics have made major in-roads in a range of application areas, from shopping bags through to bioplastic film. Without government incentives and support for the use of bioplastic bottles - a major new product development opportunity is at risk of being squandered.

Zenith International reports offer you the most reliable market figures and in-depth analysis of trends. This comes from a bottom up approach to the research process, and detailed discussions undertaken with industry players.
