MSIC CODE

25209 : Manufacture of other plastic products n.e.c

 

 

INDUSTRY :

PLASTIC


The plastics manufacturers have been adversely affected by the rising prices of major types of plastic resins, both local and imported, due to various factors. The Malaysian Plastics Manufacturers Association (MPMA) stated that the average price of certain grades of resins on August 2007 was higher by about 20% compared to the average price in 2006. The increase was mainly due to the strong surge in crude oil and natural gas prices that had led to higher feedstock prices. Feedstock is the principal raw material used in the production of plastic resins. The unabated increase in prices of the resins, which form a major portion of the manufacturing cost of plastic products, ranging from 50% to 70% depending on the types of plastic products, has adversely affected the operations of the plastic manufacturers. Nevertheless, MPMA had adopted various cost-saving measures to absorb the impact of the rising cost, the adverse impact had left them with no avenue but to pass part of the rising cost to intermediate users and retailers. MPMA also seeks the understanding and cooperation of the intermediate users and retailers of plastic finished products to bear part of the cost, which is currently being mainly borne by the members, in order to minimise the impact of the price adjustment on consumers.


The Malaysian plastic products industry is one of the most established industries within the country's manufacturing sector. The industry has developed into a highly diversified sector, encompassing an extensive range of plastic products such as components for the telecommunications industry, construction materials, household goods, acrylic sheets, bags, bathroom accessories, bottles, containers, toys games and packing materials. The plastic industry registered a decline in output and sales of 3.6% and 0.7% in the first six months of 2007 (January-June 2006: 21.7%; 13.3%), respectively, due to lower demand for components from the E&E and transport equipment industries as well as lower supply of petroleum feedstock. This was reflected in the sharp decline in the production of plastic bags and films as well as plastics blow moulded products by 25.1% and 14.0% (January-June 2006: 44.9%; 1.1%), respectively. However, plastic injection moulded products continued to record strong growth of 20.1% (January-June 2006: 17.5%), in part due to increased demand for packaging materials by the beverages industry as well as plastic parts for automobile components meant for the export market.


Malaysia is a net exporter of plastic products. Export of plastic products grew 10.8% in the first six months of 2007 (January-June 2006: 10.2%) in response to increase demand from information and communications technology (ICT) and medical devices industries. Major export destinations were Singapore, Japan and Thailand. Malaysia is the second biggest plastic bag exporter to European Union (EU) after China. Although the domestic sector is facing stiff competition from China, Thailand and Indonesia, the exports of plastic products to the EU saw an increase following the conclusion of anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigations in 2006 on plastic carrier bags imported from Malaysia. In addition, Malaysia's move to ban the import of plastic waste to be recycled and used as inputs in the production process effective October 2007, will ensure greater acceptability of domestic plastic products worldwide.


Local plastic manufacturers, who are mostly involved in the packaging industry, should look to produce high value-added and precision products in the medical device and biotechnology industries as this will help increase the production of moulded products using engineering plastics, bringing the industry on par with that of developed countries such as Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. The increased interest in the manufacture of plastic components and plastic compounds indicates that the sector is moving up the technology and value chain. This trend is expected to continue in 2007.

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth


COMMENTS

 

 


Established in 2007, the SC is principally engaged in the manufacturing of thermo plastic and resins. Although the SC incorporated in Feb 2007, the SC has not started its production. We were informed that the SC is going to start its production in March or April 2008. Being a young company, the SC faces high business risk as it has yet to build up a stable reputation for itself among its supplier and clientele. We noted that the SC's paid up capital stands at RM2 and the SC's shareholders structure consists of 2 individual shareholders. Without a strong shareholders' backing, the SC may face difficulties in its attempt to further expand its business in the future.


The SC has no clientele information as it has not started its production. However it is planning to focus on both local and international customers. At present, the SC has 5 employees in its operation and we were informed that its going to recruit its production workers in March 2008. The management of the SC is headed by Executive Director, Leong Saw San. As the SC is newly established, more efforts are expected from the management and its overall management capability is regarded as weak.


As the SC has not started its production, it has yet to file its financial statement with the Registrar Office. Therefore we are unable to comment on the SC's financial position.


The SC has no supplier information as it has not started its production.


The SC is clear of any litigation action.


The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near future. With the promising outlook of the industry performance, the business potential of the SC should be favourable. However, as the SC is a new player in the industry, the SC has to implement aggressive marketing strategies in order to capture its own market shares in the market and to compete with other well established players in the same field.


Being a young company, we propose that business transaction with the SC be conducted with caution and on a conservative basis until such time when the SC is more fully established. Hence, credit is not recommended.
