BUILDING MATERIALS INDUSTRY
Automatic Brick Manufacturing Industry
Automatic Brick Manufacturing industry is the backbone of construction work and occupies one of the most important places in the urbanization of any country. Being a developing country, the demand of bricks is increasing day by day in Bangladesh. On the other hand, govt. is experiencing a period of flux, as pressures from environmental groups for emitting over 5.0 million tons greenhouse gas annually from this industry. So, Bangladesh govt. banned the manual brick or FCK from July 01, 2014.
Here, we from EPC, gathered several years of exposure in Auto-Brick manufacturing plants for construction and operation both. As for the technologies are new and designs are imported from offshore developed countries, performance efficiency is subject to successful implementation through incorporation of local geographical characteristics. Through rigorous R&D, EPC now owns the perfect solution (in context of Bangladesh).

AGRO FEED INDUSTRY
Bangladesh has a unique, hi-tech Feed Industry. The technologies are mostly imported from Europe, USA and a few from China. This industry maintains high standards & quality and ensures a ‘multi check-ups’ before marketing its products. Almost all the large commercial feed mills in Bangladesh have their own Testing Laboratories. More than 201 feed mills- large and small registered with Department of Livestock Services (DLS) in Bangladesh.
The per capita consumption of chicken meat and egg is still very poor in Bangladesh but there is a positive sign as the per capita income has been increasing along with the living standards. Along with this, the countrymen have now become more conscious about their health and nutrition. The present annual growth rate is approximately 15%-18%.
In EPC Corporation Ltd., we provide not only manufacturing equipment and technology, but also integrated solutions. Hence, quality feed products can be produced in a reduced operation cost, which is the key point in maintaining competitive advantage in market competition. We have always adhered to the concept of safe feed and food and integrate this concept into our products and projects to ensure green, clean and safe feed for our pets.

PLASTIC INDUSTRY
Over the years the use of plastic products has been increasing by leaps and bounds in Bangladesh because of its intrinsic feature: it is durable, easily portable and affordable to the buyers as far as price is concerned. It is one of the emerging sectors in our economy with having a growth momentum at about 20 per cent a year on the back of ever-expanding demand from both home and abroad. In fiscal 2017-18, the domestic market size of plastic products hit Tk 25,000 crore, according to the Bangladesh Plastic Goods Manufacturers and Export Association (BPGMEA).
Plastic exports rose 31 percent year-on-year to $117 million last fiscal year, according to data from the Export Promotion Bureau. But Bangladesh has only 0.6 percent share of the $546 billion global plastic market.
There are innumerable items made of plastic used as household product, and as raw-materials in industrial and construction sectors. It mostly produces several types of extrusion material, moulding thermosetting conversion like manufacturing of PVC pipe, shopping bags, injection moulding products, garment bag, woven bags, PTE/PE bottle, laminated packages, rigid sheet, garments accessories, household products, medicine packs etc.
One indicator of future growth is that average plastic consumption in Bangladesh is about 2 kg per person. In contrast, in India it is 6 kg and 40 kg in Gulf countries and 10 kg in Southeast Asia. So this Industry is yet to uncover the boom
Woven Plastic Industry
Nonwoven Plastic Industry
Recycled Plastic Industry
CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
Bangladesh’s chemical imports have nearly tripled in the past decade, spurred by the rising demand from various industrial sectors catering to domestic and foreign markets. There is no industry where chemical is not required. Garments and textile sectors are the main consumers of the imported chemicals followed by pharmaceuticals, food processing, cosmetics and toiletries, leather, plastic and other sectors. Businesses brought in Tk 17,548 crore worth of chemicals in 2017-18, which was only Tk 6,103 crore in 2007-08, according to Bangladesh Bank (BB) data. Imports rose 12 percent year-on-year to Tk 7,772 crore in the July- November period of the current fiscal year, according to the BB. This is a huge existing demand market and rising industrialization fuels demand for chemicals.
