February 26, 2026 – Today, our company successfully dispatched 3 full containers of expandable polystyrene (EPS) raw materials to our long-term cooperative customers in Vietnam, marking another important milestone in our deepening cooperation with the Vietnamese market and contributing to the continuous enhancement of Sino-Vietnamese industrial and trade ties. The shipment, which departed from the designated port this morning, is expected to arrive at the destination port in Vietnam within the scheduled time, ensuring the timely supply of EPS raw materials for the customer’s production and operation.
EPS, also known as expandable polystyrene, is a versatile polymer material with excellent performance characteristics such as light weight, high strength, heat insulation, shock absorption, and moisture resistance. It is widely used in various fields including construction, packaging, cold chain logistics, and daily necessities, playing an indispensable role in supporting the development of related industries around the world. As a professional supplier of EPS raw materials with years of experience in R&D, production, and export, our company has always adhered to the principle of "quality first, customer-oriented" and has established stable cooperative relationships with customers in more than 50 countries and regions around the world, including Vietnam, South Korea, Brazil, and Saudi Arabia.
The 3 containers of EPS raw materials shipped this time have a total weight of approximately 75 tons, covering high-quality general-purpose EPS particles and flame-retardant EPS raw materials, which can fully meet the customer’s diverse production needs. The customer, a well-known manufacturing enterprise in Vietnam, is mainly engaged in the production of building insulation materials and packaging products, and has maintained close cooperative relations with our company for more than 3 years. This shipment is not only a concrete manifestation of the mutual trust and long-term cooperation between the two parties but also a positive response to the strong demand for EPS raw materials in the Vietnamese market.
In recent years, with the rapid development of Vietnam’s manufacturing industry and the continuous advancement of infrastructure construction, the demand for EPS raw materials in the country has shown a steady growth trend. According to customs data, from January to September 2025, Vietnam became the largest export destination for China’s expandable polystyrene, with an export value of 54.52 million US dollars, accounting for a significant proportion of China’s total EPS exports. This is mainly due to the insufficient local EPS production capacity in Vietnam, which makes the country highly dependent on imports to meet the needs of its booming manufacturing and construction industries. At the same time, the Vietnamese government’s policies to promote industrial upgrading and infrastructure investment have further boosted the demand for high-quality EPS raw materials, creating broad market space for Chinese EPS suppliers.
Our company has always attached great importance to the Vietnamese market and has continuously optimized its product structure and service system to better meet the local market demand. Before this shipment, our professional team conducted in-depth communication with the Vietnamese customer to fully understand their production needs, product specifications, and delivery requirements. We strictly controlled the quality of the EPS raw materials, from the selection of raw materials to the production process, and conducted multiple rounds of quality inspections to ensure that the products meet international standards and the customer’s specific requirements. In addition, we also optimized the logistics plan, selected a professional international logistics company with rich experience in Sino-Vietnamese trade, to ensure the safe, efficient, and timely delivery of the goods.
“The stable supply of EPS raw materials is crucial to our production and operation. We have been cooperating with this Chinese company for many years because of their high-quality products, reliable delivery, and thoughtful service,” said a representative of the Vietnamese customer. “This shipment of 3 containers of EPS raw materials will effectively solve our current raw material shortage problem, ensure the smooth progress of our production schedule, and help us better meet the market demand for building insulation and packaging products in Vietnam.”
As an important part of the global EPS industry chain, China’s EPS industry has maintained a good development momentum in recent years. According to industry forecasts, the market size of China’s EPS foam industry is expected to reach 18.5-19.5 billion yuan in 2026, with a growth rate of 8.5%-10.2% compared with 2025. The output is expected to increase from 3.2 million tons in 2025 to 3.55-3.65 million tons, with an average annual compound growth rate of 9.8%. In terms of export trade, China’s EPS export volume is expected to increase from 280,000-320,000 tons in 2025 to 350,000-400,000 tons in 2026, with an export value of about 850-102 million US dollars, mainly exported to Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, and other regions. Among them, Southeast Asia, especially Vietnam, has become one of the core export markets due to its strong demand and geographical advantages.
In conclusion, the successful shipment of 3 containers of EPS raw materials to Vietnamese customers on February 26 is not only a concrete measure for our company to expand the international market but also a positive contribution to strengthening Sino-Vietnamese industrial and trade cooperation. It reflects the strong demand for high-quality EPS raw materials in the Vietnamese market and the recognition of our company’s products and services by international customers. In the future, our company will continue to focus on the development of the international market, deepen cooperation with customers in various countries and regions, and promote the healthy and sustainable development of the global EPS industry.
