Traditionally companies use polystyrne materials, which are generally extruded, or injection molded for packaging. However, increasing awareness among companies about the environmental impact of polystyrene, such as its non-biodegradability. Polystyrene packaging is non-recyclable and ends up in a landfill. Therefore, companies are looking to use biodegradable and recyclable packaging materials where possible. Starch-based materials have the potential as biodegradable food packaging materials that reduce environmental pollution. The usability of starch-based biodegradable materials can be improved or extended by adding other additives or biopolymers and using innovative preparation techniques. Additionally, the starch adhesive is most widely used in the corrugated board industry because of its abundant supply, low cost, renewability, biodegradability, and ease of chemical modifications. As participants in the packaging industry become increasingly aware of the importance of moving toward sustainable and greener options such as corn starch packaging is being recognized as more than just a public relations alternative. This significant growth of e-commerce and increasing adoption of eco-friendly packaging material is expected to propel the demand for industrial starch.
