en.Wedoany.com Reported - TA'ZIZ, a UAE-based company, signed a series of agreements worth a total of $28.5 billion at the "Make it in the Emirates" forum. These agreements aim to secure global offtake and reliable local feedstock supply, enabling the UAE to undertake large-scale chemical production and strengthening TA'ZIZ's role in building a fully integrated domestic chemical ecosystem. The agreements cover sales agreements with ADNOC and Proman for methanol; an agreement with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) for caustic soda; agreements with Mitsubishi Corporation for ethylene dichloride (EDC), vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), and caustic soda; agreements with Mitsui & Co. for EDC and caustic soda; an agreement with Sanmar Group for EDC and VCM; an agreement with Tricon for polyvinyl chloride (PVC), EDC, and caustic soda; and an agreement with Vinmar for EDC and PVC.
On the feedstock supply side, ADNOC Gas secured a 25-year natural gas supply agreement to provide feedstock for the TA'ZIZ methanol project, valued at over $5 billion (AED 18.4 billion). Meanwhile, TA'ZIZ also signed a 20-year salt supply agreement with Abu Dhabi-based Sama Salt to support production at its PVC complex.
Mashal Saoud Al-Kindi, CEO of TA'ZIZ, stated that these long-term agreements represent a decisive milestone for TA'ZIZ and the UAE's industrial growth goals. By securing global demand and reliable local feedstock, TA'ZIZ is turning its vision into reality, anchoring world-class chemical production, strengthening domestic value chains, and creating lasting economic value, job opportunities, and supply chain resilience for the UAE. Together, these agreements leverage local resources, ensure a reliable and sustainable supply of key raw materials, and advance the UAE's industrial self-sufficiency.
TA'ZIZ is an ecosystem integrating manufacturing, industrial services, logistics, and utilities, capable of producing new products across the transition fuels and chemical value chains. This ecosystem supports ADNOC's goal of becoming one of the top three global chemical companies and drives the UAE's industrial development and economic diversification. Upon completion in 2028, the TA'ZIZ Industrial Chemicals Zone is planned to produce 4.7 million tonnes of chemicals annually, including a 1 million tonnes/year ammonia plant, a 1.8 million tonnes/year methanol plant, and 1.9 million tonnes/year of marketable products from its integrated PVC complex. This PVC complex, producing PVC, EDC, VCM, and caustic soda, will be one of the three largest single-site PVC complexes globally.
Also at the "Make it in the Emirates" forum, TA'ZIZ and Alpha Dhabi Holding announced a strategic cooperation agreement to develop new industrial chemicals with a capital investment of approximately $10 billion (AED 36.7 billion) within the TA'ZIZ Industrial Chemicals Ecosystem in Al Ruwais Industrial City, Al Dhafra Region, Abu Dhabi. This partnership is expected to produce up to 14 new chemicals, adding approximately 2.2 million tonnes/year of additional chemical capacity to the TA'ZIZ Industrial Chemicals Ecosystem in Al Ruwais Industrial City. These new chemicals include styrene, polystyrene, acrylic acid and its derivatives, polyols, MDI, epoxy resins, and linear alpha-olefins. Based on domestic demand, these products can replace key chemicals currently imported by the UAE while enhancing local supply chain resilience. By strengthening domestic manufacturing capabilities and advancing self-sufficiency in strategically important chemicals, this collaboration supports the UAE's national industrial priorities, including the "Make it in the Emirates" initiative and the National Industrial Strategy.
