An Omani firm is seeking to attract Iranian plastic manufacturers and transfer industrial technology as part of its early-stage industrial development, said a senior official from Le Metrics International Company.
The International Relations Manager at Oman’s Le Metrics International Company, Mohammed Al Muqbali, made the remark on the sidelines of IranPlast 2025, stating Oman is at the beginning of its industrial journey and views Iran as a valuable partner for technology transfer and industrial collaboration.
“Our second visit to this international event is aimed at exploring Iran’s industrial capabilities and establish connections with active producers in the plastics and foam sectors,” he said.
Highlighting the technological gap between the two countries, Al Muqbali noted, “Iran is more advanced in industrial technology. Oman is just starting its development path and I am working to attract several Iranian manufacturers to operate in Oman.”
He added that Le Metrics International is currently building relationships with Iranian companies and described the cooperation environment as promising.
“These partnerships are taking shape and we are working to start operational collaborations in the near future,” he added.
In response to a question about plans to purchase equipment or machinery for Oman’s plastic and polymer industry, he stated, “We are actively pursuing this goal and taking practical steps along the way. I am optimistic about the future.”
He described IranPlast as a valuable platform for strengthening industrial and commercial ties between Iran and Oman in the plastics sector and expressed hope that these efforts would lead to cooperation with manufacturers and transfer of industrial technologies to Oman.
Iran’s 19th International Exhibition of Raw Material, Plastics, Rubber, Machinery and Equipment, known as IranPlast 2025, kicked off on September 8 in Tehran and will run to September 11.
