Saudi-based Aminat, a joint venture between Huntsman Corporation and Zamil Chemplast, said it has won the key ISO 9001 certification in recognition of the operational performance and professional skills at its Jubail plant.

John Smyth, the VP of Huntsman’s EMEA Performance Products business, said: ”This is a remarkable achievement for a site which only began production two years ago. It confirms our commitment to product quality and customer service and is a recognition of the world class operational performance, high level of skills, and excellent teamwork within Aminat."

"Aminat is a key part of the Huntsman global supply network of ethyleneamines to customers in the Middle East, India, Europe and Asia Pacific," he added.

Huntsman, he said, is a global manufacturer and marketer of differentiated chemicals. "Our operating companies manufacture products for a variety of global industries, including chemicals, plastics, automotive, aviation, textiles, footwear, paints and coatings, construction, technology, agriculture, health care, detergent, personal care, furniture, appliances and packaging," he added.
