Al Kharj City, affiliated with the business capital of Riyadh, witnessed the inauguration of a new factory for the Arabian Plastic Industrial Company—APICO. Senior officials from the company and the Balubaid Group, as well as a host of business leaders, industry pioneers, and interested parties, attended the event.
The new factory, strategically located in Al-Kharj Industrial City, with a total land area of 34,000m2, has been a significant milestone for APICO. In the initial phase, the factory building, which covers 12,000m2, was completed, and various plastic products were produced through blow molding and injection molding lines. These lines will soon be developed to cover the majority of APICO’s products, including the new PET product range, as part of the factory’s expansion plans to cover a total area of 22,000m2 in the near future.

Since its establishment in 1996, APICO has always sought to implement the latest technologies to ensure production quality and keep pace with the requirements of various customers, relying on its accumulated expertise and workforce to continue its growth, excellence in the market, and remain at the forefront of this industry”.
