TA’ZIZ is an industrial chemicals and manufacturing hub based in Al Ruwais Industrial City, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Established by ADNOC and ADQ, it develops large-scale chemical production alongside supporting industrial services and logistics to expand the UAE’s downstream chemicals sector.
The development comprises an Industrial Chemicals Zone and a Light Industrial Zone that produce and convert base chemicals into downstream products. Its planned portfolio includes essential chemicals and derivatives such as ammonia, methanol, chlor-alkali, ethylene dichloride/vinyl chloride monomer (EDC/VCM), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), supporting regional manufacturing and export-oriented value chains.
