Guangzhou China, May 25, 2011 - Recently, CCM International, the domestic market research institute, publishes its up-to-date report Lactic Acid and Polylactic Acid in China, which includes the survey of production situation, technology problem, cost and other important domestic producers as well as the differences and advantages in the top five domestic producers.
Due to the feature of environmental protection and biodegradation, PLA attracts more and more attention in China. In recent years, although PLA industry has got a significant progress, it still rests on its youth. At the moment, PLA's total capacity is nearly 20,000 tonnes in China, but the top five producers almost expand their capacity to reach a ten thousand tonnes level. It is evaluated that the domestic capacity is hopefully to newly increase above 20,000 tonnes. Zhejiang Hisun Biomaterials Co., Ltd., the second PLA producer in China, owns a high reputation in domestic PLA industry due to its high quality.
At present, China's PLA is in an early stage of development. It is driven by government policy support, the populace's environmental awareness & increases of income, increasingly intensified white pollution and improvement of PLA technology. Especially the government policy, China's government provided a special fund to support the R & D of PLA's new technique and development of production line. Besides, China's government also legislated to limit the application of traditional plastic, and it created a nice opportunity for the development of PLA undoubtedly. However, the consumption of PLA is not very large in China recently, most of PLA end products are exported, and the reason is that price of PLA is higher then that of traditional plastic, and it becomes the main limiting factor. According to CCM's survey, the exponential growth in PLA will continue in next 5 years. If the technology of PLA can be improved and its price can be further decreased, its growth speed will be faster.
