LOTTE Chemical Pakistan Ltd. has officially restarted production at its facility, bringing operations back online on September 1, 2025.
The company disclosed the development in a notice to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), following up on an earlier material information announcement dated August 8, 2025.
This marks a significant step for the chemical producer, which has been a key player in Pakistan’s industrial sector since its incorporation in May 1998 under the now-repealed Companies Ordinance of 1984.
LOTTE Chemical Pakistan specializes in producing and selling Pure Terephthalic Acid (PTA), a crucial raw material used in the manufacturing of polyester fiber, resin, and film. The plant’s resumption is likely to provide a boost to industries reliant on PTA, particularly textile and packaging manufacturers, which make up a major part of Pakistan’s exports.
By promptly updating the market, the company has signaled operational stability and a renewed focus on supply continuity—an important factor for stakeholders navigating an often volatile manufacturing landscape.
