Welcome to the Plastics Cluster Website

The plastics cluster was established in February 2006 as an Interest Association of Legal Entities with the aim to create a communication platform for its members – plastic product manufacturers. The main reason for cluster establishment was especially strong position of the plastics industry in the Zlín Region (together with rubber industry it represents the most productive sector of the region). Another reason is a shortage of qualified working labour force, missing research and development background for plastic product manufacturers, need of an appropriate negotiation position for services and products, and effective enforcement of the sector interests. Cluster activities focus on 4 priority sectors: education and human resources development and innovation, cooperation, common purchase and sale of services, and promotion of the cluster. more >
