Ontario East Economic Development
Plastics and Packaging

photoThere are many good reasons to join our plastics cluster in Ontario East. Among them are its:

  • Workforce, with its high productivity, low turnover and labour costs, and its high skill and education levels, which are supported by eight Ontario East post-secondary schools whose plastics programs confer engineering degrees or diplomas
  • Lower combined corporate income taxes than those of the United States, Canadian and Ontario tax credits that cut the after-tax cost of $100 of R&D expenditures to about $42, and an Ontario tax incentive offering a 100% deduction on the eligible cost of acquiring new technology
  • Location, in the heart of a centrally located region with road, air and sea access to the huge, multiple industrial and consumer markets of Canada—as well as to those of the United States, through our three efficient U.S. road border crossings and our railroads in the NAFTA Rail Corridor
  • Cost competitiveness, with lower overall operating costs than those of any G8 country, universal health care coverage and fully serviced, competitively priced industrial properties of up to 400 acres
