SOUTH EAST ASIA PACIFIC

You may not be aware of the increasing profile of Plastics News International in the South East Asia and Pacific region, and the exciting advertising opportunities presented by our access to key industry decision makers in this rapidly expanding market. Many of the plastics industry suppliers in the South East Asia area are already taking advantage of our increasing penetration into this vibrant economic sector, because they are getting excellent value their advertising dollar.

We began circulating Plastics News International into South East Asia and the Pacific nine years ago. Five years ago, building on our growing success in the region, we felt confident enough to develop a South East Asia Pacific regional supplement. This has quickly become recognised as the leading source of valuable, authoritative and up-to-date information on plastics in the region.

Plastics News International is a monthly four colour print publication that takes pride in communicating the very latest news, events and trends in the industry, with special features for processors of plastics, their end users, and their suppliers.

Each month we include our South East Asia Pacific regional supplement mentioned above. This increasingly popular supplement features news and trends on plastics specifically aimed at the South East Asia Pacific region.

This supplement has been a major factor in the rapid growth of our regional subscriber numbers. This impressive growth in subscriber numbers reflects the dramatic growth in demand for plastics in the region, and reflects the identification of Plastics News International as the preferred source of reliable, authoritative, and up-to-date information on this rapidly growing regional industry.

We have a circulation of at least 4,500 plus per month that is specifically directed to identified decision- makers in SE Asia Australia New Zealand and the Pacific region.

We have invested heavily to become a preferred plastics magazine in the South East Asia Pacific region. Our investment is now paying off, as evidenced by the growing number of advertisers in Plastics News International.
