Emirates Biotech has announced plans to construct a new facility in the United Arab Emirates dedicated to the production of polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable plastic derived from renewable resources. The company has chosen Sulzer technology to spearhead this innovative project, which aims to enhance sustainable practices in the region's manufacturing sector.
The groundbreaking for the facility is anticipated to take place in 2025, marking a significant step forward in the UAE's commitment to environmental sustainability and the circular economy.

The investment in this facility is expected to create numerous job opportunities and foster advancements in biopolymer technology within the region.
