"I believe that this is a major building block that will further strengthen Sipchem’s position as a leading petrochemical product supplier in the kingdom and internationally. At Sipchem we believe that the chemical industry’s growth will continue, driven by positive market dynamics," he stated.

He pointed out that the new business venture was in line with Sipchem’s commitment to supporting local industries within the kingdom.
