The plastics industry in Vietnam is comprised primarily of private, mostly small and medium size companies.  It has

invested in high tech modern machinery and equipment to make it as competitive as it is today in providing top quality products. In the past two years, plastics have been the third fastest growing export in Vietnam, despite the recent climb in oil prices and the growing demand. Vietnam presents an excellent and timely choice for low price imports in this sector for the San Francisco Bay Area and California to expand their scope of business and diversify their imports or import sources.

AMONG THE MANY PRODUCTS, INCLUDED ARE:

  Vaccum Forming Plastic products by PVC, PS, PP, HIPS, PET for packing

  uPVC pipes, corrugated pipes, uPVC doors, Wall and Ceiling Panels, uPVC cable trunkings, and accessories for pipes

  Plastic parts for refrigerators, printers, television sets, bathroom accessories

  LDPE patch handle bags, HDPE T-Shirt bags, roll bags, garbage bags, star-seal bag, bio degradable bags, plastic

      handles for plastic bags and much more.
