Role of Asia in the Evolving Bio-feedstock & Bioplastics World

With oil prices at an all time high and increasing awareness of environmental footprint, the market for bioplastics is growing exponentially in Europe and USA. How is Asia performing in this respect and what role will Asia play in this business?

With the recent ban of plastics bag use in China effective 1 June 2008 and Australia announcing the ban as well, will this present more opportunities for the nascent bioplastics industry to flourish?

Innovative bioplastics coming out of sugar-cane, corn, CO2, bacteria & etc are giving brandowners more choices to work with in their product development. However, are these inventions commercially & economically viable & is supply sufficient to meet demand?
