This plastics manufacturing plant at Siddick was opened by Eastman Kodak in the early 1980s and was later acquired by Indorama Ventures PCL. It produced around 160,000 tonnes pa of PET granules. mainly used in the forming of plastic bottles. As Asian competition increased the plant became uneconomic and production was first halved and then stopped completely in early 2014. The site was mothballed in hope of better times until Indorama decided in 2017 that it would not reopen. Demolition was completed during 2018.
