Global SAN Resins Producers Seek Major Opportunities in China

"China is the world's largest market for styrene acrylonitrile resins and a top converter as well as producer of plastics," states a TMR analyst. "In 2013, this nation alone held nearly 25% of the global share of plastic production by volume. This is why producers of SAN resins are all hoping to get in on the action in China," the analyst adds.

The China plastic industry has consistently worked on high investments and low operating costs, making it an extremely lucrative location for most plastic raw material providers. This region has shown a staggering growth rate over the past decade, which implies keeping a high rate of plastics production rates though the economic meltdown that hit the world in 2009.
