TA’ZIZ has signed two long-term product sale agreement term sheets with The Sanmar Group, a leading global producer of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and specialty chemicals, to supply key petrochemical feedstocks for Sanmar’s operations in Egypt and India. The agreements were formalized during ADIPEC in the presence of His Excellency Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and ADNOC Managing Director and Group CEO, and Ambassador Navdeep Suri, Chairman of TCI Sanmar Chemicals and board member of The Sanmar Group.

Under the terms of the agreements, which span up to 10 years, TA’ZIZ will supply over 350,000 tonnes per year of ethylene dichloride (EDC) and vinyl chloride monomer (VCM). The products will be manufactured at the TA’ZIZ Chemicals Industrial Zone in Al Ruwais Industrial City, Al Dhafra region, Abu Dhabi. This marks the first time that either chemical will be exported from the UAE, reinforcing the country’s strategic role as a competitive and reliable producer in global chemicals markets.

Mashal Al-Kindi, CEO of TA’ZIZ, said: “These agreements reflect TA’ZIZ’s commitment to becoming a dependable supplier of high-quality petrochemical products to international markets. We are proud to support The Sanmar Group’s growth across Egypt and India, while advancing industrial development and economic diversification in the UAE. This partnership builds on the strong and enduring economic ties between the UAE and India, offering further opportunities for value creation and long-term collaboration.”

EDC and VCM are essential feedstocks in the production of PVC, a widely used thermoplastic with applications across infrastructure, healthcare, construction, and consumer products. The materials supplied through this agreement will support Sanmar’s PVC production facilities in Port Said, Egypt, and Cuddalore, India.

Vijay Sankar, Chairman of The Sanmar Group, said: “We are delighted to launch this strategic relationship with TA’ZIZ. These agreements underline our shared focus on operational excellence, sustainability, and the creation of enduring value across the markets we serve.”

The TA’ZIZ Chemicals Industrial Zone is expected to produce 4.7 million tonnes per annum of chemical products upon completion in 2028. The EDC and VCM will be produced at the TA’ZIZ PVC production complex, the zone’s largest manufacturing facility, with a total marketable production capacity of 1.9 million tonnes per year across caustic soda, EDC, VCM, and PVC. The zone will also feature a 1 million tonne per year ammonia plant and a 1.8 million tonne per year methanol plant.

By enabling domestic downstream growth and supplying key international markets, TA’ZIZ is reinforcing its role as a trusted global industrial partner and a catalyst for the UAE’s industrial transformation under the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology’s Operation 300bn strategy
