Petrochemical & Plastic Exports to Afghanistan | B2B Trade Platform

Digital Trade Corridors: Iran’s Petrochemical and Plastic Exports to Afghanistan through the Abrisham Road B2B Platform

The export of petrochemical and plastic products is one of the most important pillars of Iran’s non-oil foreign trade. Thanks to vast oil and gas reserves, high production capacity, a wide range of polymer products, and a strategic geographical position, Iran has become a major supplier of petrochemical materials in the region. Among neighboring markets, Afghanistan holds a strategic position as a key destination for Iranian exports.

With the expansion of digital trade and the growing need to reduce intermediaries and transaction costs, the Abrisham Road International System, recognized as Iran’s first B2B platform, has played a vital role in facilitating and structuring the export of Iranian petrochemical and plastic products to Afghanistan.

Position of Iranian Petrochemical and Plastic Products in the Afghan Market

Iranian petrochemical and plastic products account for a significant share of Afghanistan’s industrial, construction, agricultural, and packaging needs. These products are widely used across multiple sectors and are valued for their competitive pricing and regional accessibility.

Basic Petrochemical Products

  • Polyethylene (HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE)
  • Polypropylene (PP)
  • Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
  • Polystyrene (PS)
  • Basic chemicals such as methanol and urea

These materials are essential raw inputs for pipe manufacturing, packaging industries, construction materials, agricultural applications, and various industrial components in Afghanistan.

Finished Plastic Products
