This chapter summarizes the current state of bio-based materials in food packaging sector. Driven by the increasing needs of sustainability, huge effort has been given to development of new materials that are obtained from renewable sources and can potentially replace petroleum-derived materials on market. A range of main bio-based polymers targeted for food packaging industry are presented focusing on structural properties of bio-based polymers, general processing techniques, main limitations of these materials, and current state on market. Moreover, the chapter examines the new technological approaches in upgrading the properties of bio-based packaging materials to a commercial application, together with potential solutions, as well as discusses the major industry players who are bringing these materials to the market.
