Polyethylene is another vital element in OQ's Polyolefin value chain. These lightweight and durable materials are the most common group of thermoplastics in use today.
Demand for polyethylene is on the rise and is expected to reach 112.3 million tonnes by 2021. OQ is firmly committed to strengthening our footprint locally and globally, while answering future challenges, with the novel push to produce polyethylene in Oman.
