A new interactive database tracking international trade in non-plastic substitutes has been developed through a collaborative effort between the UN Trade and Development’s (UNCTAD) Statistics Branch and Trade, Environment and Climate Branch. The database is now available on the UNCTAD online Data Hub.

The database allows users to track evolving patterns of global trade in non-plastic substitutes based on export values reported by member states. These can be used to identify and track emerging patterns as well as opportunities.
