Scientex’s Arizona plant set to gain from US-China trade war


Scientex was among the top gainers as investors were positive about its purchase of Mondi Ipoh Sdn Bhd (MISB) for RM58mil cash to expand its consumer packaging division.

The company has a US$50mil stretch film plant in Arizona, US, that started operations in January. A second plant at the same site commenced operations in March.
