We trade commodity polymer resins and basic chemicals made in the Gulf and Asia: HDPE film grade, PP raffia, PVC suspension resin and caustic soda flakes. Gulf producers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE set monthly prices, while Chinese, Taiwanese and Indian material competes through spot offers. We quote against current regional benchmarks and confirm each lot by proforma. Full container loads ship from the producer's port to the buyer, or are re-exported through Jebel Ali to customers in East Africa, South Asia, Iraq and the CIS.
