The Arya Sasol polymer Company, (Persian:شرکت پلیمر آریا ساسول) is an Iranianpetrochemical company located inAsaluyeh, Iran. The establishment contract for this company was signed in April 2002 through a memorandum of understanding between theNational Petrochemical Company of Iran and the German branch ofSasol, aSouth African company. According to this contract, it was decided that theolefin unit, as well as the twoLow-density polyethylene,Medium-density, andheavy polyethylene units ofPars Petrochemical Company, would be separated and established as an independent company under the name Arya Sasol.
