Delivering value to stakeholders
In 2023, the global economic growth had slowed, influenced by geopolitical tensions and China’s sluggish post-pandemic recovery. High energy costs and product oversupply worsened the industry’s downturn, with soft demand across the chemicals sector. Additionally, the Company’s commodities business faced internal and external challenges which affected plant utilisation, resulting in lower production.
