INDOPLAS is a professionally organized trade exhibition featuring the latest innovations in technology and products for the plastics, rubber and packaging industries.

About PLASTIC

Polyolefin industry in Indonesia having potential to grow further since its consumption currently only 7kg/capita compared to Thailand & Singapore at 30kg/capita, China at 14 kg/capita and Malaysia at 45 kg/capita. New integrated plant from petrochemical upstream (feedstock) to its midstream Polyolefin products still needed in term of competitive industry and open market era.

The product application of PP and PE Indonesia mainly for commodities grade and price sensitive segment such as flexible packaging, woven bag, mineral water cup, household and some automotive parts.

About RUBBER

Asia is the main source of natural rubber, accounting for around 94% of output in 2005. Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand are the three largest producing countries and together account for around 72% of all natural rubber production.

Natural rubber is and will stay as an important export product for Indonesia. The country is the second largest producer of natural rubber in the world after Thailand.

Rubber produced in Indonesia is mainly exported directly to industrial countries or transshipped through Singapore, and most of it is used in the production of tires.

About PACKAGING

Indonesia has a population of 240m people. Close to 70% of GDP is driven by consumer demand. This will fuel demand for food, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, household chemicals and other consumer products. This will result in an increase in demand for processing and packaging industries that serves FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) markets.

The food packaging industry in Indonesia continues to be lucrative, boosted by switch from non-packaged fresh products to packaged ones. Product packaging continues to grow, from packaged food to packaged beverages, cosmetics and toiletries to household care products.

More than one half of all packaging used in Indonesia is plastic-based, a quarter is paper-based, followed by metal and glass. More than 70 percent of packaging materials are used for food and drinks.
