Rising demand for plastic packaging products


Thong Guan Industries Bhd’s foray into the messenger bag segment turned to the black in just one year, as production was snapped up by US e-commerce giants.

KUALA LUMPUR: CGS-CIMB Research has upgraded the packaging sector to “overweight” from “neutral” due to the rising demand for plastic packaging products, driven by stay-at-home orders.

The research house predicts the packaging sector’s core net profit to be 12.5%, and compounded annual growth rate to be 8.7% for calender year 2020 to 2022, driven by upcoming capacity expansions.
