Summary

Across the Kingdom, industries are rethinking how chemicals are produced, used, and disposed of — prioritizing sustainability, safety, and efficiency. Green chemistry represents a shift from managing hazards to preventing them altogether.

What is Green Chemistry?

It involves designing chemical products and processes that minimize waste, eliminate hazardous substances, and reduce environmental impact. It’s not just a lab initiative — it’s a strategic approach to industrial growth.

Adoption in Saudi Arabia

Driven by Vision 2030 and stricter environmental regulations, manufacturers are moving toward biodegradable formulations, water-based solvents, and energy-efficient processes. ATC and similar companies are developing locally blended alternatives that reduce reliance on imported, high-risk materials.

Business & Environmental Value

Embracing green chemistry helps companies reduce disposal costs, avoid regulatory penalties, and appeal to sustainability-focused clients. It also supports Saudi Arabia’s national goals around resource conservation and industrial innovation.
