The 17th International Exhibition of Plastics, Rubber, Machinery and Equipment, commonly known as IranPlast International Exhibition, will host 560 domestic and 210 foreign companies in Tehran from September 17-20.

The NPC CEO added the completion of value chain and the creation of added value are the key factors in the development of the petrochemical industry with the aim of taking optimal advantage of investment opportunities.

He said the development of technology in the downstream sector is among NPC’s policies, continuing that focusing on the transfer of technology through indigenizing and broadening domestic technical know-how is one of the principles of forming value chain.

IranPlast International Exhibition, as the biggest event of the country’s supplementary and midstream industries of the petrochemical sector, can play an effective role in promoting cooperation and infrastructure, improving conditions, and removing the potential obstacles in the way of balanced development.
