Hundreds of new plastic products and the latest equipment and machines are on display at the 3rd international complete plastics exhibition (Complast Vietnam 2018), which was opened on Wednesday in HCM City.

Smart Expos and Fair (India) Pvt. Ltd (SEFIPL) organised the fair in co-operation with Viet Nam Plastics Association (VPA) at the Saigon Exhibition & Convention Centre (SECC) in District 7.

Processing machines and technologies as well as chemicals, additives, test equipment and recycling services will be on display, among many other items.

The three-day expo includes hundreds of exhibitors from 21 countries and regions, including India, Taiwan, China, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Laos, Cambodia, Africa, the Middle East, Egypt, Iran, Turkey, Greece, UAE, Australia, Italy and Sri Lanka.

Visitors can interact with global corporations and hundreds of plastic industry solution providers.

A seminar will be held on the sidelines of the expo on 3D printing technology for making tools, advanced recycling of plastic waste, and knowledge sessions on recycling plastics in Viet Nam.

Investment opportunities in the industry are promising as the country has high-growth prospects, significant dependence on imported raw materials and processing machineries, and a high level of plastics exports.

PricewaterhouseCoopers said that Viet Nam could become one the fastest-growing of the world’s emerging economies by 2025, with a potential growth rate of almost 10 per cent per annum. — VNS
