Vietnam's plastics industry is expected to grow, with total production to hit 4.2 million tonnes, double the level of 2007. Some of the country's key sectors are in a huge need for plastics - particularly the packaging industry. The rising demand for high-tech plastic products is noted in various sectors, including automotive and electronics. The region is still in need of manufacturing machinery and raw materials. Investment opportunities exist in the plastics machinery production, plastics resin production and waste plastics reprocessing sub-sectors.

Currently, there are about 2700 plastic corporations in Vietnam, 80% of which are of small or medium size and privately owned. Only 6% are state-owned, but they represent about 20% of the total capital invested in the industry. The plastics sector is actively promoted by the Vietnamese government. The Ministry of Industry set up several key investment programmes for the industry to push up the production of hi-tech industrial plastics and export products and developing the plastic recycling industry.
