ENP Foreign Trade Team
Southeast Asia is one of the world's fastest-growing economic engines.Shanghai ENP seizes the opportunity. Recently, we visited Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore twice to investigate the local market. Brought Tedlar® PVF coated steel to have in-depth discussions with local companies, driven by 'Premium Products + Genuine Service', We embark on a new chapter of in-depth market development in Southeast Asia.


Forward Vision: Capturing the Growth Dividend in Southeast Asia


Zuo Shuyong, Deputy General Manager of Shanghai ENP, and Chen Xi, Account Manager, went to Malaysia to investigate the market and visited with some local companies. Mr. Zuo said that Southeast Asia with its demographic advantages, infrastructure demands, and favorable policies, and is the "gold market" for Chinese enterprises to go overseas. ENP's foreign trade team has meticulously strategized its expansion by focusing on three key drivers: product adaptation, channel innovation, and localized services. ENP is tapping into the growth potential of high-end building materials and eco-friendly materials, aiming to transition from mere "product exports" to establishing a sustainable local presence.


- 01 -
Advantages in Population Size and Structure
Southeast Asia has a total population of over 680 million, with a median age of just 28. Young workers make up more than 60% of the labour force, driving robust consumer demand. The region’s strong openness to innovative products (e.g., Gen Z accounts for 24% of Malaysia’s population) is accelerating demand upgrades in sectors like building materials and electronics.
- 02 -
Infrastructure Demand and Policy Advantages
Multiple Southeast Asian countries have positioned infrastructure as the cornerstone of economic recovery. For instance, Indonesia has introduced its "2025 Emissions Reduction Target", while Singapore is advancing green building standards, spurring growth in eco-friendly construction materials. Governments are attracting foreign investment through tax incentives (e.g., Malaysia's BOI policy) and industrial funds (as seen in Indonesia's nickel export ban to boost domestic processing). With RCEP in effect, regional trade barriers have been further reduced, enabling Chinese enterprises to leverage the Belt and Road Initiative for deeper market penetration.

Technical Cooperation and Skill Development
The ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and China make Southeast Asia a key destination for relocating industries such as electronics manufacturing, semiconductors, and new energy. Major corporations like Intel and Samsung have already invested over $10 billion of new production facilities across the region. Looking ahead, Shanghai ENP plans to establish overseas warehouses in Indonesia and Vietnam, adopting a "local inventory + rapid response" model to shorten delivery cycles, enhance supply chain efficiency, better serve regional demand, and mitigating risks from geopolitical and trade uncertainties.

Expertise: Winning Trust with Value


ENP highlighted the superior corrosion resistance and extreme weather performance of DuPont™ Tedlar® PVF-coated steel compared to traditional paint coated steel. Notably, Tedlar® PVF contains no formaldehyde or volatile compounds and is Greenguard Gold-certified, aligning perfectly with Southeast Asia's stringent environmental standards and building codes. Moving forward, ENP is confident in fostering deeper collaborations across Southeast Asian markets.
Anti-Aging and UV Resistant

PVF laminated and paint coated steel exhibit excellent UV resistance and anti-aging performance. Even after prolonged exposure to wind, rain, and sunlight, the coating surface will not experience chalking or fading.
Chemical Resistant

PVF laminated and paint coated steel can withstand various acids, alkalis, salt spray, and polar solvent corrosion, protecting the substrate from harsh environmental conditions.
Tensile Strength

PVF laminated and paint coated steel may achieve 0T bending performance, meaning they can be folded back on itself without cracking. This provides reliable, long-lasting protection for fabricated metal sheets.
Easy to Clean

PVF laminated and paint coated steel effectively resist dust and dirt accumulation. Their chemical-resistant properties allow cleaning with various detergents, significantly reducing maintenance costs.
