Today, GSI remains the only local manufacturer of antioxidants and we are committed to support our customers with innovation, security of supply, and overall value” said Peter Smith, Addivant CEO and GSI Chairman of the Board.

“The rapid expansion of the Middle East polymer industry over the past two decades has been impressive and it will continue in the years ahead with the downstream markets playing an increasingly important role. Smith added, “With our breadth of specialty additives and formulation capabilities, we will continue to support our customers in the growth of applications in the automotive, packaging, agriculture, building and construction, and medical markets”.

”ALKANOX® 240, ANOX® 20 and ANOX® PP18 represent key building blocks of our ANOX® NDB® blended products, which are today’s preferred additive solution for customers in the region”, stated Adel Alghassab, Zamil ChemPlast President and GSI Board Member.
