Driven by tightening global environmental policies and the upgrading of green consumption, bamboo fiber tableware, with its renewable and biodegradable advantages, is experiencing continuous market growth and becoming a new trend in the tableware industry. Data shows that the global bamboo tableware market reached US$12.85 billion in 2024, maintaining a compound annual growth rate of 16.8% over the past five years, and is expected to exceed US$25 billion by 2029, with particularly strong demand in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific markets.

The European market has already seen the benefits of supportive policies. The German chain restaurant brand Bio Company completely replaced its disposable tableware with bamboo fiber bowls, plates, and cutlery sets starting in 2024. Its representative stated that bamboo fiber products not only comply with the EU ban on single-use plastics but also gain consumer favor due to their natural texture. After their introduction, the brand’s environmental reputation score increased by 32%, driving a 15% increase in customer traffic. The brand has now established a long-term partnership with a Chinese bamboo product company and plans to promote bamboo fiber tableware to over 200 stores across Europe.

The expansion of retail channels in the North American market is also impressive. Amazon, the American e-commerce giant, launched a “Sustainable Tableware Section” in 2025, resulting in a 210% year-on-year surge in sales of bamboo fiber tableware. Bambu, a leading bamboo product brand on the platform, leveraged its antibacterial bamboo fiber technology to launch a product line suitable for both home and outdoor use. After joining the section, its monthly sales exceeded 100,000 units, becoming a top 3 brand in the eco-friendly tableware category on Amazon’s North American market. Its success is attributed to accurately targeting the core consumer group aged 25-45, meeting their dual demands for environmental friendliness and practicality.

With the continuous iteration of production technologies, bamboo fiber tableware is constantly improving in terms of durability and practicality. Its application scenarios are gradually expanding beyond the catering and retail sectors, penetrating into high-end settings such as hotels and airlines. Against the backdrop of a growing global awareness of zero-waste principles and the continuous improvement of green trade systems, bamboo fiber tableware, which combines environmental friendliness with cost-effectiveness, will undoubtedly capture a larger share of the international market and usher in a new chapter of large-scale development.
