Mr. Rachmat attributes this to Primaplas’ carefully curated network of industry suppliers, manufacturers, regulators, and affiliates, and their ongoing relationship with the Pacific Plas Group. The Pacific Plas Group is an international investment network that connects Asia-Pacific business across sectors. Based in Singapore, the organisation identifies their mission as: “Our approach to business is simple; for you’ and that is what we do. We are a one- stop-shop for resin and film for our clients in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore, and we use our connections across the world to deliver a really unique experience to our customers that showcases our knowledge and experience.” Viewing the plastics industry as its own ecosystem, Primaplas also uses its expertise to meet and exceed expectations in holistic sustainability. The company promotes the use of environmentally friendly plastic alternatives, works regularly with green and recycled plastics, and utilises effective and high-yield materials to minimise waste wherever possible. Mr. Rachmat explains, “We are very heavily focused on sustainability and circular polymers. We work together with our suppliers and partners to provide them with alternative products to their current traditional polymers. Recycled polymer is actually the fastest growing segment in our market thanks to market and consumer demand. When we keep plastics in the materials loop, we contribute to the development of a circular economy. There are many possibilities for plastics to be sustainable.” As part of its commitment to sustainability, Primaplas attends the annual Australian Waste and Recycling Expo (AWRE), next held in August 2022. AWRE uses its platform as Australia’s longest running exhibition marketplace for suppliers, distributors, and consumers to drive industry innovation, promote research and development, and highlight industry players who embrace a new way forward for waste.
