  • (1888PressRelease) September 13, 2011 - AutoPlastCON is a two-day conference that focuses on the latest automotive trends and the rising use of automotive plastic components in China. To be held on 27-28 February 2012 in Shanghai, the conference will shed light on the central themes: "Increasing Plastics' Role in Vehicle Lightweighting" and "How Electric Mobility and Green Transportation Trends are Changing the needs for automotive components?"

    The AutoPlastCON is a convergence of minds across the Automotive OEMs, Tier 1 and 2 Auto Parts Manufacturers and Plastic Manufacturers. You will hear from the Automakers and Automotive Component Manufacturers on their future directions and plans, strategies for vehicle lightweighting, electric mobility and green transportation trends, as well as from Plastic Manufacturers on the material developments and potentials for plastic car parts.

    The automotive industry in China is the biggest in Asia and rivals that of the US with vehicle volume forecasted to reach more than 15 million units in 2011 (source: PWC's Autofacts). With the Chinese government's ambitions to put more than a million electric vehicles on the road each year by 2015, trends of vehicle lightweighting will likely take center stage.

    Plastic penetration in China's automotive industry is set to grow further, as using more autoplastics can greatly reduce vehicle weight hence helping electric vehicles stay fuel efficient, and increase their range of travel before needing to recharge. The consultancy, Frost & Sullivan estimates that the Chinese automotive industry is estimated to increase the value of the auto plastics market from its current US$5433.4 million to US$11,044.9 million in 2017.
