Barometer shows tricky weather in plastics sector

摘要

BUSINESS The latest analysis from German group Ceresana Research shows the Eurozone debt crisis is affecting the mood of plastics companies in western Europe, but it has only had a small impact on the worldwide plastics industry's confidence levels.The group said:"The chemical and plastic industries are still in a positive mood: More than one third of the companies surveyed [around the world] by Ceresana Research evaluate their current business situation as good. Only just less than 14% rate their business situation as poor. Almost 83% of the survey participants expect their market share to increase over the next three years."
