In 2018, the industry contracted slightly, due to economic slowdown in Japan. The country’s export growth eased off and the effect was felt throughout the Japanese economy, curbing investment and consumption activities. Consequently, key local rubber and plastics buyers expanded at a slower pace and thus created weaker demand in 2018. For example, manufacturing and construction sectors rose by just 1% in 2018, while the retail sector was stagnant.
