Can You Live One Day Without Chemicals?

Chemistry is everywhereβ€”from the products you use to the industries that power modern life. It's more than science; it's the foundation of everyday living.

A SECTOR THAT PUNCHES ABOVE ITS WEIGHT.

Industry contributes nearly a fifth of Pakistan's economy.
Manufacturing makes up two-thirds of that industrial base.

Chemicals sit inside it as a critical building block β€” feeding textiles, construction, agriculture and more.

Small share. Big leverage.

Every great chemical industry starts with a strong petrochemical foundation. A naphtha cracker isn't just a facilityβ€”it's the engine behind thousands of everyday products and future industrial growth.

The global chemical industry is led by five giants, spread across three countries. Even in a challenging year for the sector, they remain the benchmark for scale.

ExxonMobil edged past Dow by only $12 million, so the race for the top is tight.

Size brings responsibility. Producing safely, protecting people and the environment, and operating responsibly are what keep an industry strong.

SMALL DEVICE.
BIG WASTE PROBLEM.

⁃ Earbuds.
⁃ USB adapters.
⁃ Charging cables.
⁃ Mini fans.
⁃ Small gadgets.

They may look insignificant.
But when millions of them are discarded, the impact adds up.
International E-Waste Day puts the spotlight on Fast Tech and responsible management of electronic waste.

In 980 AD, a Muslim scholar from Bukhara sat down with rose petals and steam, and accidentally laid the foundation of modern chemical engineering.

Ibn Sina, known to the West as Avicenna, invented steam distillation by extracting essential oils from the Damask Rose. The result? Two pure products: essential oil and rose water. The process? Still used in every fragrance, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical plant on earth,1,000 years later.

He also invented the refrigerated coil to condense vapours. Wrote over 400 works. Was a fully qualified physician by age 18.

Chemistry didn't begin in Europe. It was perfected in the Muslim world.

Pakistan’s $2.53B organic chemical import bill shows the scale of the opportunity for local manufacturing and value addition.

With investment and the right policy support, Pakistan can turn import dependence into industrial growth.

One chemical. Millions of jobs.

Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) is not a household name. But it should be.

PTA is the chemical foundation of polyester fibre, the material in most of Pakistan's garments, sportswear, and home textiles.

Without PTA, Pakistan's textile export machine stops.

Pakistan's PTA sector (Source: PACRA / PSX / PBS):
Sole producer: Lotte Chemical Pakistan β€” Port Qasim, Karachi
Annual capacity: ~500,000 MT

CY24 production: 424,771 MT β€” up 29.6% YoY
CY24 revenue: PKR 109,299 million β€” up 33.4% YoY
Capacity utilization: 83.8% (up from 64.7% in CY23)

This is a single manufacturing facility powering a multi-billion-dollar downstream industry.
