He Ye, vice chairman of China light industry federation, spoke at the 2018 China Plastics Industry Meeting held at 27th August. He emphasized that the first four months of this year, the plastic products industry’s development speed have slowed down, and all kinds of factors will be reversed transmission during the transitional period of plastic processing industry to high-end level, in promoting the development of plastic industry to high quality. According to He ‘s introduction, from January to April 2018, the development of the plastics industry slowed down, and the production of plastic products reached 20.4455 million tons, an increase of 2.32% over the previous year. The industrial added value was 3.6%, the main business revenue was 623.519 billion yuan, with a year on year growth by 6.69 percent.

Global innovation pattern and industrial revolution are accelerating, the factors of global manufacturing going into the intelligent transformation are reversed transmission in plastic processing industry to high-end level, promoting the development of plastic industry to high quality.

He Ye said, to strengthen scientific and technological innovation, not only do we need to focus on developing multi-function, high performance materials, in terms of functional materials, greening, environmental friendly new breakthrough, conquers the highest position in plastic science and technology innovation actively, but also to strengthen the construction of standard quality, strengthen the intelligent manufacturing, promote the development of industrial agglomeration, positive response "area" initiative, encourage products and capacity to go out, actively expand in emerging markets, make great efforts to keep the positioning of the international market in our country.
