The new facility aims at increasing the Kingdom’s supply base targets of raw materials, such as solvents and glycols, and accelerating the development of the manufacturing skills and capabilities of the local Saudi workforce, contributing to increased Saudization. With faster delivery of fit-for-purpose chemical solutions, the facility will be closer to customers and suppliers, creating efficiencies across the business.
