He Jun, vice president of the China Light Industry Council, said at the 2018 China Plastics Industry Conference held on the 27th that the development speed of the plastics industry slowed in the first four months of this year, coupled with various factors such as transition period will force the plastics processing industry to In the high-end, to promote the plastic industry to high-quality development.
According to He Hao, from January to April in 2018, the development speed of the plastics industry slowed down, and the output of plastic products was 20.4455 million tons, an increase of 2.32% over the same period of last year. The industrial added value was 3.6%, and the main business income was 623.519 billion yuan, an increase of 6.69 over the same period of last year. %, realized profit of RMB31,004 million, which was a decrease of 4.69% year-on-year, and profit margin of main business income was 4.97%, which was a decrease of 0.59% year-on-year. The pressure on industry development suddenly increased. In addition, China's plastics processing industry has entered a new stage of further development. The pattern of innovation and the continuous acceleration of industrial change have driven the global manufacturing industry into the intelligent transition period. All factors have forced the plastics processing industry to move toward the mid-to-high end, pushing the plastics industry to high-quality development.
He Wei stated that it is necessary to increase scientific and technological innovation, focus on the development of multifunctional and high-performance materials, make new breakthroughs in the functionalization of materials, greenization, and environmental friendliness, and actively seize the commanding heights of innovation in plastics science and technology. Build, strengthen smart manufacturing, promote industrial agglomeration, actively respond to the 'One Belt and One Road' initiative, encourage products and capacity to go out, actively expand emerging markets, and strive to maintain China's international market positioning.
