Brings you an International Plastics Exhibition

PLASTICS VIETNAM is the initiative of VIETNAM PLASTICS ASSOCIATION and ENTERPRISING FAIRS INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED, INDIA. Vietnam Plastics Market is one of the fastest growing markets in SOUTH EAST ASIA. At 4.2 million tonnes per annum VIETNAM market is the second largest market after Thailand in South East Asia. Besides a growing demand from the domestic market, our exports are worthy of its size. Plastics processing is raw material intensive. Besides the material cost next major element is the power. So the industry constantly needs to update and adopt efficient manufacturing practices to keep the production costs low. Higher outputs, lower operating costs are the need of the hour. Only these aspects can help VIETNAM maintain its place in the export market. Developments are also rapid in the processing machinery side. Additives and Master batches industry help in improving the performance of the materials. The Ancillary equipment industry facilitates keeping costs low.  New and higher output Mould Designs help in substantial increase in the output.  The printing, decorating and converting industry keeps pace with the expectations of the packaging industry and current trends. Besides all these, the recycling of plastics is a huge responsibility on the plastics industry.

Where do we get updates on all these sectors of the plastics industry? Only an EXHIBITION can act as a one source platform. EXHIBITIONS stimulate growth, help in disseminating knowledge to the processors and showcase current trends and developments in processing technology and materials. In fact, EXHIBITIONS play a strong catalytic role in the growth of the plastics industry. The popularity of K FAIR and CHINA PLAST are a testimony to the above fact but then how many of our plastics processors visit these fairs help outside VIETNAM. A very small percentage only visits these expos. A large portion of the plastics processors don’t get to visit these expos. SO THE NEED IS to organise an exhibition by the industry for the industry at our doorsteps. Only an Association which represents the interest of the industry can understand and meet the expectations. SO VIETNAM PLASTICS ASSOCIASTION is now ready from now on to fulfil this expectation. So the birth of PLASTICS VIETNAM (www.Plastics-vietnam.in).

The first edition of PLASTICS VIETNAM, co organised by VIETNAM PLASTICS ASSOCIATION will be held IN Saigon Exhibition & Convention Centre (SECC) , Ho Chi Minh City  on July 23, 24 & 25, 2015. This humble beginning will see a marked growth in the future editions.  Over 100 exhibitors from INDIA, CHINA, TAIWAN, SINGAPORE, KOREA, IRAN, MALAYSIA, and ITALY will show case the current developments in plastics processing and raw materials and master batches. Besides participation from international companies, a large contingent of EXHIBITORS from VIETNAM will also be participating in PLASTICS VIETNAM.    This marks a significant shift and reflects the growth trend of the industry.  No doubt this pioneering initiative of VIETNAM PLASTICS ASSOCIATION (VPA) and ENTERPRISING FAIRS INDIA PVT LTD (EFIPL) (www.enterprisingfairs.in) will mark the beginning of a new industrial revolution and see larger and wider participation in the future editions.

A special highlight will be participation by large Manufacturer of polymers from IRAN.   Reputed manufacturers of Extruders will offer world class equipment at affordable prices.  Machines for manufacturing SHEETS for making THERMOFORMED food trays and cups will be an added attraction. State of the Art Injection Moulding machines will be offered by world class manufacturers from India. New Technology to produce WOVEN SACKS &FIBC bags will be well received by the visitors. High Output machines PIPES& FITTINGS will change the profile of the product range, quality and performance.

Another unique aspect will be offerings from quite a few companies – Reprocessing and Recycling machines. These machines will handle a variety of post consumer plastics waste and increase recycling.

THEME PAVILION –WORLD OF PLASTICS

A unique THEME PAVILION ON WORLD OF PLASTICS will be best highlight of the expo.  This will be a journey in to the world of plastics – the role played by plastics –everyday in every walk of life.   The myths and facts about plastics, use and disposal of plastics, segregation, collection and recycling – the role of public, duties of the Government and the extended producers responsibility of the producers and associations, will be revealed in this short journey.  Films on Recycling of Plastics, use of Plastics waste in laying of roads, will open the eyes of the public and other stakeholders.
