The current situation of Algeria's plastics industry:

Algeria has a population of 38.7 million, stable economic growth, and large reserves of oil and natural gas. The increasing consumption power of Algerians has also promoted the rapid development of the plastics and rubber industries. Algeria is the fourth largest economy in Africa, after Egypt, South Africa and Nigeria.

The annual consumption of Algeria's plastic and rubber industry is about 1 million tons, most of which rely on imports from Asian and European countries. In the past few years, the demand for the plastics industry in Algeria has continued to increase, which has led to the continuous expansion of domestic demand for plastic products.

Optical brightener OB-1 C.I. 393 used in PVC Profile:

Among many plastic and rubber products, PVC profiles are particularly widely used in the plastics industry. PVC profiles are industrial and domestic PVC products that are extruded at high temperature by adding various functional additives to PVC resin. According to performance, it can be divided into hard and soft. Rigid PVC profiles are mostly used in construction, such as making PVC doors and windows, PVC floors, PVC pipes, etc.; soft PVC profiles are used for PVC hoses, power transmission cables, etc.

In order to make the appearance of the product look more high-end, the factory generally adds optical brighteners to the formula. The optical brighteners used in plastic products includes: optical brighteners OB 184, optical brighteners OB-1 393and optical brighteners FP-127 378, after the market experiment proves, the optical brighteners OB-1 is the best cost-effective product for PVC profiles.
