Shanghai Chemical Industry Park (SCIP) Shanghai Chemical Industry Park (SCIP), a national-level economic and technological development zone, is situated on the northern bank of Hangzhou Bay and spans a planned area of 29.4 square kilometers. As a specialized petrochemical-focused development zone, it has established a circular economy industrial chain anchored by ethylene production and fostered distinctive industrial clusters dominated by new chemical materials. Recognized as China's premier chemical park, it hosts the highest concentration of renowned multinational chemical enterprises nationwide, features high-end leading industries, enforces stringent safety and environmental management standards, and leads the industry in circular economy practices.

SCIP commenced its development in 1996. It was approved as a "National-Level Economic and Technological Development Zone" by the State Council in 2012 and designated as one of China's seven prioritized national petrochemical industry bases under the State Council's 2014 strategic plan. Today, it has evolved into China's most open and globally integrated chemical industrial park, establishing itself as a pioneering model and leading benchmark for the development of chemical industrial zones nationwide.

SCIP has drawn insights from the development process of world-class petrochemical hubs. Building on its unique conditions and characteristics, it pioneered and implemented the innovative development philosophy of "Five Integrations": integration of product projects, public utilities and auxiliary services, logistics and transportation, environmental protection, and management services. This approach has established its distinctive advantages in "professional integration, investment concentration, resource intensification, and benefit clustering." Currently, multinational giants such as BASF, Covestro, Huntsman, INVISTA, Moeve Chemicals, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical and Mitsui Group, Evonik, Henkel, 3M, and FMC, etc.; as well as globally renowned utility providers like Suez, Air Liquide, Vopak, Praxair, and Sembcorp have established operations in SCIP. The "Five Integrations" philosophy and operational model have been officially endorsed by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) and China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation (CPCIF), solidifying its status as a national exemplar and guiding principle for the development of chemical industrial parks in China.

SUEZ SUEZ is a major player in environmental services.
