Global Trends in White Biotechnology 2025 and Beyond

White biotechnology, the use of biological systems and processes to produce chemicals and materials, is emerging as a critical enabler of sustainability and innovation across industries. As global demand for sustainable alternatives grows and regulatory pressure increases, biomanufacturing is becoming a central pillar in efforts to decarbonize supply chains, replace petrochemical-derived products, and unlock new industrial capabilities.
 
The white biotechnology sector spans a wide range of applications from bioplastics to bio-based chemicals. Driven by rising investment, technological breakthroughs such as AI-driven protein engineering, and major policy shifts supporting sustainable products, the industry is poised for expansion. However, challenges remain around scaling processes, reducing costs, and improving downstream purification — all crucial to the commercial success of biomanufactured products.
 
In this webinar, IDTechEx explores the future of white biotechnology, its potential to reshape materials and chemical markets, and the technological innovations driving progress.
 
This webinar will include:
  • An overview of white biotechnology and its growing market opportunities
  • Exploration of major regulatory trends, including their impact on bioplastics such as PLA and PHAs
  • Insights into emerging technologies, such as AI-driven enzyme and protein engineering
  • Developments in fermentation and reactor systems aimed at improving biomanufacturing efficiency
  • Examination of persistent challenges, particularly around downstream processing (DSP)
  • A forward-looking perspective on biomanufactured chemicals. IDTechEx's conclusions and strategic perspectives on the role of white biotechnology in a sustainable future
 
IDTechEx is showcasing its newest report on industrial biomanufacturing, "White Biotechnology 2025-2035: Technologies, Forecasts, Markets, Players". The report provides in-depth coverage of 35+ biomanufactured molecules, technological trends, company landscapes, and a 10-year segmented forecast. It also explores how machine learning, bioreactor technologies, and downstream innovations are shaping the future of the industry.
