(Yicai Global) Oct. 27 -- The second production line of Zhejiang Great Southeast Co.'s [SHE:002263] new optical film material project, which the firm financed with company proceeds, has a 50,000-ton annual capacity and is ready for trial production.

Toray Industries Inc. [TYO:3402] made the production line applying the most advanced optical film production technologies, and it will start trial production on Oct. 30, the firm said yesterday.

The company said it will continue to improve the rate at which it makes quality products during the trial production and strive to achieve target output as soon as possible.
