Following the recent decision by the United States to increase import tariffs on plastic resins from Thailand, Thai exporters face a clear challenge. However, this development also marks a pivotal moment for the Thai plastics industry to enhance its capabilities — in quality, advanced technologies, and sustainable, environmentally friendly production. Thai manufacturers are now shifting their focus from quantity to value-added innovation, aligning with international standards to meet the evolving demands of the global market. 

As ASEAN’s leading platform for plastics technology, InterPlas Thailand sees this as a timely opportunity for the industry to turn crisis into progress. With strategic collaboration across all sectors, Thailand has the potential to emerge as a regional leader in plastics innovation — driven by systematic and sustainable development.
