(plastech) -- Octal has announced that phase two in the expansion plan of its state-of-the-art PET complex in Salalah has been successfully completed within budget and on time.
Following the ramp-up period, full production is expected by August, fortifying the company’s ability to serve the North and South American markets’ dedicated capacity commitments. Phase two capacity takes total system output to 920,000 tons per year of PET bottle-grade resin.
OCTAL, based in the port city of Salalah, Oman, is the largest PET resin manufacturer in the Middle East and the largest integrated PET sheet manufacturer in the world. Company’s focus on PET responds to converging global trends of consumer lifestyles that increasingly demand convenience packaging and the industry’s growing need for environmentally friendly products and improved economics throughout the value chain.
