 Biogenic polymers are gaining popularity in the industry due to the decreasing demand for petrochemicals. Despite this, their cost and performance remain low compared to traditional synthetic polymers. Biodegradable alternatives are currently available on the market, accounting for only 10% of the global plastic market. This estimate is based on 50,000 tons per year in Europe, representing less than 1% of total consumption. The aim of this review is to highlight the importance of the production of biogenic polymers in the manufacturing of biodegradable materials, including macromolecular compounds derived from natural sources such as oligomers and monomers. These include chitosan, starch, polybutylene succinate, and polylactic acid, which have been used by various research groups to develop biogenic polymeric materials.
