The Saudi Vision 2030 shifted KSA’s approach to tissue paper: we use more of it and prefer hygienic paper products. So when we recognized that KSA was one of the Middle East’s largest tissue paper importers, we seized the opportunity to localize production and provide world-class products and services to tissue paper converters – in KSA and abroad.
As the largest paper manufacturer in the Middle East and Africa, MEPCO has been at the forefront of the industry since 2000. Now, we’ve applied our experience and expertise to the tissue paper market.
Featuring KSA’s first cutting-edge tissue paper machine, our state-of-the-art tissue paper mill operates at high speeds and boasts 60,000 tonnes of annual capacity. And thanks to our convenient location close to King Abdullah Port, we seamlessly deliver to 5 continents, helping you maintain an efficient supply chain.
