A Panoramic view of the Plant

A success story based on a unique concept in which a raw material supplier Jordan Phosphate Mines Company Limited (JPMC - Jordan) and a finished product consumer Southern Petrochemical Industries Corporation Limited (SPIC - India) joined hands in 1991. Based on the merits and content of the joint venture, The Arab Investment Company SAA (TAIC - Saudi Arabia), a Pan-Arab financial institution, subsequently joined as a third promoter to further strengthen the Indo-Arab partnership.

IJC was incorporated in March 1992 for the purpose of setting up and operating a Phosphoric Acid & Sulphuric Acid Complex in Jordan by availing the Rock Phosphate from JPMC and exporting the entire production of Phosphoric Acid to India.
