The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) has announced the first review of anti-dumping measures imposed on a number of plastic products from China, Malaysia and Thailand.
A Taiwanese bubble tea brand, Gong Cha Viet Nam, has announced its plan to replace plastic products with environmentally-friendly materials, in an effort to reduce waste by 60 per cent in the next six months.
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 will be held from January 10-12 in HCM City.
Viet Nam''s plastics exports were expected to increase between 13.5 and
16.5 per cent this year, thanks to efforts by domestic producers to
improve product quality.
Viet Nam''s plastics industry earned US$2.2 billion last year, posting a
13 per cent increase from the previous year. The export turnover from
plastic products accounted for $1.8 billion.
Increasing global demand for plastic products had provided opportunities
for domestic manufacturers to expand their markets, according to the
Industry and Trade Information Centre
