Inkwood Research anticipates that the global nano cellulose market will reach $2006.21 million by 2028, growing with a CAGR of 18.05% during the forecast period. The base year considered for the market study is 2020, and the forecast years are from 2021 and 2028.

Nano cellulose entails a group of materials, defined as having at least one of its fibrous dimensions in the nano-scale. According to the European Union, nano cellulose is a naturally mass-produced material containing particles, wherein more than half their numbers and one or more external dimensions across the quantity distribution, range between the sizes of 1 nm to 99 nm. Moreover, increasing technological advancement in the food packaging industry, and the improved VOC emissions in paints and coatings, drives the market growth.Nano Cellulose Market

Key factors fueling the global nano cellulose market growth:

  • Exceptional properties of nano cellulose
  • Rise in usage of flexible packaging
    • The use of flexible bio-degradable packaging is steadily increasing in the Asia Pacific, owing to the stable increase in food trades and growth in the food manufacturing sector.
    • Also, the variations in lifestyle and workplace behaviors and the transitioning inclinations toward contemporary food habits are increasing the demand for packaged foods.

Key market restraints limiting the global nano cellulose market growth:

  • Economic hurdles
    • The price of cellulose nanofibrils, for 1 gram to 500 grams, costs USD 2, while the price of cellulose nanocrystals, for the same quantity, costs USD 25. This creates a massive price difference, ultimately creating economic turmoil.
    • In addition, the cost of manufacturing per kilogram of nano cellulose is more than the cost of producing carbon fiber.
    • Hence, these factors are likely to hinder the market growth.
  • Lack of buyer awareness
