Agility Continues to Expand
Long term demand for the use of polyolefins in automotive and white goods manufacture in Asia led Agility and Borouge, a provider of plastics solutions to break ground on a new logistics hub in Shanghai. To be completed this year and fully operational by May 2010, the 70,000 square meter facility will mainly serve the China market.
The facility will receive bulk container shipments from Borouge’s gateway in Ruwais, Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates. Borouge is building a 30,000 square meter Compound Manufacturing Unit on the site where it will produce 50,000 tonnes of compounds each year mostly for domestic Chinese distribution in the Shanghai area.
