golden mean" between producers and converters. When producers receive exactly
such margin of production, which helps them to invest in production expansion in
order to substitute polymers imports, and the converters receive such price of
feedstock that helps them to compete imported finished products. The Summit site

well as opportunities to ask questions or make appointments to any Summit
partcipant.
