In view of the increasing demand for plastic products across the globe, the Uttar Pradesh government is going to develop plastic processing parks, one of which will be set up in the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) area.
The YEIDA Board has approved the proposal and the Planning department is working on the outline of the park. After the approval, work on the project will start and the process of setting up industries will accelerate, a government spokesman said here on Thursday.
The Yogi Adityanath government has a plan to set up a plastic park on the lines of medical device park, toy park, textile park, leather park, and electronic park in UP.
Units for processing, manufacturing and other related technology of plastic products will be set up in the plastic park, which will meet the plastic needs of not only Uttar Pradesh but also the country and the world, an official said.
He said hundreds of plastic units would be set up in an area of 100 acres.
The All India Plastic Industries Association has already presented a proposal in this regard. The plan has also been approved by the YEIDA Board. More than 20 investors have proposed to invest in the plastic processing park to be set up in the YEIDA area.
