Process chemistry supporting large-scale fertiliser production.
Saudi Arabia’s agro-nutrient industry is driven by abundant rock phosphate reserves in the north of the Kingdom, supported by large-scale ammonia availability. Together, these resources enable the production of ammonia, urea, phosphoric acid, DAP, and MAP—core inputs to global agriculture.
Alchemist has an in-depth understanding of Saudi Arabia’s agro-nutrient ecosystem, supporting SABIC and Ma’aden phosphate complexes across Jubail, Ras Al-Khair, and Turaif with a comprehensive portfolio of process-critical chemicals.
