2 Background The Federation of Plastic Industries (AFPI) was founded in 1981 by integrating the national Plastics Industrial Associations amongst countries. The AFPI, now with seven members, seeks to promote intra- economic cooperation and coordination in the field of plastic industry. Its other purpose is to develop and initiate preparation and implementation of plans, programs and projects that will promote and advance intra- plastic industries and trade. During the 15 th Term AFPI Council ( ) meeting held on April 3 rd, 2013 in Thailand, AFPI realized that there would be a huge impact from FTA in various frameworks which would influence Plastic market to become more competitive, especially in commodity products. Many manufacturers have to reduce their costs for compatible prices while less consideration would be given to products quality. The integrated of Economic Community (AEC) in 2015 will inevitably be the target market for both importers and exporters as the market size would be increased to more than 600 million people. The product contest is initiated as a part of the program to create distinguished awards for Plastic Industry under the name THE 1 st PLASTICS AWARDS so as to raise the standards, to develop and the create more value added for s plastic products. The winners will receive a certificate and a medal as the recognition of the awards. The winners can use such recognition for marketing activities.
