1976 by partnering with E.A. Juffali &
Brothers. Dow and Juffali are partners
in the Arabian Chemical Company Ltd.
(ACCL), producing latex in Dammam
and STYROFOAM™* in Jeddah and in
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
1976

Technology (KAUST). There, Dow
houses an industrial water pilot plant
facility to test real-world scenarios at the
scale of modern industry- geared toward

technology and partners with KAUST to

Ongoing Investments
Dow has a JV stake
in the Saudi Acrylic Monomer
Company (SAMCo) with Tasnee
Sahara Olefins Company. The JV, located
in Jubail, is the first acrylic monomer production
facility in the region and produces the building blocks
of advanced coatings technology. While generating
hundreds of local jobs, the asset manufactures downstream
products for local and regional markets.
Dow and Saudi Aramco entered into a Joint Venture to establish
the Sadara Chemical Company. Upon completion, the proposed
facility, located in Jubail Industrial City, would be the largest
production complex built in a single phase and one of the
largest integrated chemicals facilities in the world, generating
thousands of direct and indirect employment opportunities
through the complex and related investments in
downstream value parks. As a standalone enterprise,
Sadara will represent the largest foreign direct
investment in the Saudi petrochemical
industry.
