TA’ZIZ is an industrial chemicals and manufacturing platform based in Ruwais Industrial City, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Established as a joint venture between Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and ADQ, it develops and operates an integrated ecosystem to expand the UAE’s downstream and chemicals value chains. TA’ZIZ provides shared industrial infrastructure and access to competitive feedstocks, enabling the development of large-scale chemical production and supporting the country’s industrial diversification goals.
The platform focuses on world-scale projects across key product chains, including low-carbon ammonia, methanol, and the chlor-alkali and vinyls chain (caustic soda, ethylene dichloride, vinyl chloride monomer, and polyvinyl chloride). Through partnerships with local and international companies, TA’ZIZ aims to serve domestic demand and export markets, while building local supply chains, skilled employment, and technology transfer. Its integrated approach combines industrial zones, utilities, logistics, and services to facilitate efficient project delivery and long-term operations in the UAE’s chemicals sector.
