Conclusions

January was a calm month with few corporate news. Bio-on was the most visible company and Nodax was the most visible brand. Bio-on made the news due to their legal situation.

3 American companies (NatureWorks, Dupont, Danimer Scientific), two Italian companies (Bio-on, Novamont) and two Finnish companies (Neste & Stora Enso) are in the top 10. You could say that the bioplastics industry is lead by Americans, Italians and Finns.

NatureWorks is back in the top 10. NatureWorks CEO (Rich Altice) is one of the most discreet CEOs of the bioplastics leaders.

ALPLA made the biggest jump in popularity, mostly due to their recycling activities.

The most popular brands were Nodax, Mater-bi, I’m Green, Rilsan, Cellophane and Ingeo.

Notes

This ranking is based on website statistics of BioplasticsNews.com. These stats are for the period 1–31 January 2020.

JAN means the ranking for January. This is a relative ranking. DEC means ranking for December. This is a relative ranking.

Visibility Ratio (VR) shows how the top companies compare to the first company. The first company gets 100 % per cent, how much do the other companies receive compared to the first. This is an absolute ranking in a percentage scale.

Not all companies are equal in size. Some companies are only active in bioplastics while others are also active in traditional plastics. Not all companies produce the same type of bioplastics (PLA, PHA, Bio-PE, etc). Not all companies have the same marketing budget (multinationals vs startups). Not all companies have the same place in the bioplastic value chain.

We combine company names and brands: some brands are known by their company name, some companies are known by their brand names.
