Plastic Products
Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia have large plastics industries built on local petrochemical feedstock, and Vietnam has become a hub for bioplastic and flexible packaging. This category lists around 100 plastic products — polycarbonate roofing sheets, LLDPE bags, flexible and rigid packaging, moulded parts and bioplastic alternatives — from about 15 suppliers in seven countries.
Plastic Products and Packaging from Southeast Asia
What plastic products come from Southeast Asia?
Flexible packaging (bags, films, laminates), rigid packaging (bottles, containers), polycarbonate and PVC sheets, garbage bags and industrial consumables, injection-moulded parts, and bioplastic/compostable packaging from Vietnam. Thailand leads in engineered sheets and moulded goods, Malaysia in bags and films.
What is the MOQ for plastic products and packaging?
Stock items: 200 sheets, 200 bales or a few hundred cartons. Custom-printed packaging and moulded parts: 5,000–10,000 pieces, because set-up (printing cylinders, moulds) dominates cost. Ask whether tooling is included and who owns the mould — you should.
Which certifications should plastic suppliers have?
ISO 9001; for food-contact packaging, FDA/EU 10/2011 migration test reports and BRCGS Packaging; for compostable products, EN 13432 or ASTM D6400 certification with a certificate number you can verify (TÜV OK compost, BPI, Seedling). Be careful with 'biodegradable' claims that have no certification behind them.
Can I get custom moulded parts made in Southeast Asia?
Yes — Thailand and Vietnam have deep injection-moulding capacity. Send drawings or a 3D file with an RFQ, agree material grade and colour by resin code, and pay tooling as a separate escrow milestone with a first-article approval before production.
How do resin prices affect quotes?
Plastic prices follow PE/PP/PET resin, which moves with oil. Quotes are typically valid 7–14 days; for repeat orders, agree a formula tied to a published resin index rather than renegotiating every month.
Catalog figures are from the Seagoods database as of September 2026 and change as suppliers add or retire listings.
