Biodegradable materials are currently one of the main focuses of research and technological development. The significance of these products grows annually, particularly in the fight against climate change and environmental pollution. Utilizing artificial biopolymers offers an opportunity to shift away from petroleum-based plastics with applications spanning various sectors of the economy, from the pharmaceutical and medical industries to food packaging. This paper discusses the main groups of artificial biopolymers. It emphasizes the potential of using genetically modified plants for its production, describing the primary plant species involved in these processes and the most common genetic modifications. Additionally, the paper explores the potential applications of biobased polymers, highlighting their key advantages and disadvantages in specific context.
