Global Fluorine Chemical Factory Triples KEZAD Capacity

Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi (KEZAD) has announced that it has signed an agreement with its client Global Fluorine Chemical Factory LLC (GFCF) for the establishment of its phase two in KEZAD Mussafah, which will allow the company to triple its production capacity.

KEZAD is the largest operator of integrated and purpose-built economic zones in the UAE.

In addition to the 100,000 square metres that GCFC currently occupies at KEZAD Musaffah, the company will invest over AED 1 billion in the new facility on an adjacent plot, that spans an additional 120,000 square meters.

Four more chemical products will be added to GFCF’s product mix with the opening of the second phase of the factory. The development advances UAE’s goal of developing a circular economy as GFCF’s phase two will now be able to get the raw ingredients for its premium refrigerants.

The factory’s strategic location will enable it to make use of the wide variety of services offered by AD Ports Group and KEZAD Group and obtain easy access to international consumer markets.

The company’s position in the worldwide market will be further strengthened through effective distribution and improved connections.

Abdullah al Hameli, CEO of Economic Cities & Free Zones, AD Ports Group said: “We are pleased to see the growth and expansion of a premier refrigerant manufacturer within KEZAD, as we continue to develop integrated business ecosystems, and ensure that industrial development goes hand in hand with environmental responsibility.

"As part of KEZAD’s philosophy, we proactively take into consideration the future growth of clients and ensure that there is always ample space available for their expansion.

"This signing highlights the opportunities available to any organisation and adds significant value to the UAE’s manufacturing sector in keeping with the vision of our wise leadership.”
