About Us

The immediate past year’s ambivalence in market demands has been counterbalanced by boosts in exports, intensified networking via events, and several mergers and acquisitions, to mention a few strategies. On the word of industry observers, deals across industries including aerospace, chemicals, building and construction, energy, healthcare, and manufacturing have elevated market shares as well as reduce expenditures.

As well, the global plastics market is on track with its close to US$2 trillion value by 2020, amid the continued growth of the packaging materials segment that accounts to 20% of the total; a rising demand for composites and high performance plastics in major industries; discovery of new applications and technologies, and more. At the same time, the rubber industry is not far behind in growth, driven by strong demand from the tyre segment.

Plastics and Rubber Asia (PRA) magazine keeps on par with these growth disruptors in the industry. PRA also adapts to these changes to remain competitive as well as effective in its scope of delivering news and information.

This year, PRA is building up its digital edition circulation to cater to more mobile device users. It is also introducing improvements to the design and functionality of its websites. It has a fresh roster of media content as well as new offers to enhance campaigns and advertising, continually adding to its nearly 40,000 email subscribers.

Now in its 33rd year, Plastics and Rubber Asia (PRA) magazine has been a dedicated media platform for thousands of online, digital and print subscribers in the manufacturing, processing, developing, and research sectors. For advertisers, PRA remains to be a broad faceted conduit for potential business leads, prospecting agents and distributors, and clients who may require products and services.

PRA print magazine comes out eight (8) times a year with a yearly print circulation of 110,000 copies plus bonus distribution in key international industry events; the digital editions tap a potential 4 billion mobile device users.

It is supplemented by online niche periodicals Rubber Journal Asia or RJA (www.rubberjournalasia.com) and Injection Moulding Asia or IMA (www.injectionmouldingasia.com).
