Exploring plastic and petrochemical trends at Saudi expo

Event News

Saudi Plastic and Petrochemical Exhibition, organised by Riyadh Exhibition Company, will be held from 27-30 January 2019, discussing the latest developments related to the plastics and petrochemical industries at local, regional and international levels

Under the patronage of Mishaal Bin Majid bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, governor of Jeddah, the exhibition aims to provide a platform to enable local companies to establish a base for the petrochemical and manufacturing industries in the kingdom, enhancing the production and export of petrochemicals on a global scale over the next few years.

This year's edition of the event is being sponsored by SABIC as Diamond Sponsor, Saudi Industrial Development Fund (Industrial Empowerment Sponsor), Royal Commission for Jubail and Yanbu (Industry Supporting Partner) and Invest Saudi (Supporting Bodies). The Saudi government is also looking to harness the strengths of the vital sector in the development of high-value industrial products, in line with plans to promote the growth and diversification of the national economy.

Mohammad Al Al-Sheikh, head of marketing, Riyadh Exhibition Company Ltd, said, “Saudi Plastics and Petrochemicals Exhibition 2019 is one of the pillars of national efforts to increase the petrochemical sector output to US$453.3bn by 2030. The event represents a direct source of access to opportunities within the Saudi petrochemical and plastics sector, which is experiencing steady growth with continued government support.”

In line with Saudi Vision 2030, the exhibition intends to explore ways to collaborate in accelerating the growth of the sector and increasing its contribution to achieving the goals of the National Transformation Programme 2020, Al Sheikh further added.

The event is scheduled to coincide with the 16th edition of the Saudi Printing and Packaging Exhibition, which enables Saudi companies to access the latest technologies, services and products related to packaging and printing, creating an opportunity for international leaders to enter the promising Saudi market.
