Formosa Plastics Corp (FPC) has shut its polyethylene (PE) and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) units at Mailiao complex as a cautionary measure following a fire at the site late on 26 July.
The affected facilities comprise a 264,000 tpa linear low density PE (LLDPE) plant, a 350,000 tpa high density PE (HDPE) unit and a 240,000 tpa low density PE (LDPE)/EVA swing plant. Duration of the shutdown remains unclear.
