Toyo Engineering Corp. (Tokyo) announced that its proprietary urea granulation technology has been selected for Kazakhstan’s first urea plant, planned by KazAzot Prime LLP, a leading chemical fertilizer manufacturer. This selection marks a major step in Kazakhstan’s drive to expand domestic fertilizer production.
TOYO’s Role and Technology Scope
Toyo will act as the licensor of its advanced urea granulation technology, providing a complete technology license, a detailed Process Design Package (PDP), key equipment procurement, and essential technical services. These contributions will ensure the plant operates efficiently and reliably from startup.
EPC Partner and Global Experience
The engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) work will be executed by Wuhuan Engineering Co., Ltd., a major Chinese engineering firm. Toyo’s global track record—over 100 urea technology licenses and plant projects—and previous collaborations with Wuhuan reinforced confidence in its capabilities, supporting its final selection.
A Milestone for Kazakhstan’s Fertilizer Industry
The new facility represents a historic milestone as Kazakhstan’s first urea production plant. Once operational, it will supply high-quality urea for agricultural fertilizer applications, supporting the nation’s growing farming sector and reducing reliance on imports.
