Speaking Monday at the opening ceremony of the 19th IranPlast International Exhibition, Mohammad Sharifi-Moghaddam said the event mirrors the achievements and aspirations of the plastics industry and provides an opportunity to more comprehensively consider the future of this important sector. He noted that Persian Gulf Holding, as one of the largest petrochemical holdings in the Middle East, is proud to be part of the value chain, increasing production and exports for the industry.

He stated that Iran's petrochemical industry has achieved a prominent place in the country's economy by relying on vast national resources, a privileged geopolitical position and technical expertise. Persian Gulf Holding, he said, has taken steps to complete the value chain through large development projects, moving away from the sale of raw materials toward producing diverse products.

The CEO emphasized that the IranPlast exhibition is an opportunity to exchange expertise and showcase innovative capacities. He said research and future studies are important for the petrochemical industry and that Persian Gulf Holding has a responsibility to pioneer and fulfill its mission in this arena.
