Gulf Petrochemicals & Chemicals Association (GPCA) was originally conceived in 2004 by its founding members with a view to forming a dedicated and non-profit association serving all of its members with a variety of data, technical assistance and resources required by the petrochemicals and chemicals industry. The Founding members’ vision foresaw the need for a voluntary and non-profit association focused on providing the resources, aid and technical assistance needed by the petrochemicals and chemicals industry of the Gulf. This early insight proved to be accurate, enabling GPCA to come into existence speedily and be immediately accepted in the Gulf. On March 1st 2006, GPCA was officially launched in Dubai by its members in an official ceremony. The organisation’s role and range of services were highlighted, enumerating GPCA’s benefits to the industry in general and to its members in particular.
