What is the history of the company?
Our roots go back to the time of the independence of Qatar itself, when the idea of the Qatar National Plastic Factory was conceived by the HE Late Brigadier Mohammed Al Attiya. In 1976, we ordered our first PVC Extrusion Machines from Italy. In 2013 we relocated to New Industrial Area, and in 2017, we invested in our first injection moulding machine. In 2018, we made our factory greener, and stopped the production of plastic bags. Most recently in 2019, we started production of triple layer pipes, followed by large diameter pipes in 2020.
