1Thirty Holding Engages in Strategic Talks with U.S. Chamber of Commerce Leadership to Launch a New Industrial Project in the United States

Kazakhstan-originated industrial group 1Thirty Holding, specializing in chemical manufacturing, has held high-level discussions with senior leadership of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

The meeting took place in Astana with Khush Choksy, Senior Vice President, and Jennifer Miel, Vice President for Middle East, Central Asia & Türkiye, both of whom oversee the development of trade and investment relations between the United States and global markets.

1Thirty Holding is an international industrial group with operating assets in Kazakhstan and the UAE. The company successfully launched AsiaColor, Kazakhstan’s first full-cycle powder coatings plant, and became the first Kazakhstan company to implement an industrial manufacturing project in the United Arab Emirates under the Qemtex brand.

The discussions focused on:

• establishing a new powder coatings production facility in the United States,
• creating an innovative R&D center for the development of next-generation advanced materials and technologies,
• advancing cross-border cooperation in chemical manufacturing, sustainability technologies, and global supply chains.

Statement by Alexander Glukhov, Chairman of the Board of Directors at 1Thirty Holding:

“We see the United States as a key market for advancing next-generation chemical manufacturing. Our experience in Kazakhstan and the UAE has proven that Kazakh companies are capable of delivering competitive, world-class industrial projects. The dialogue with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce leadership marks an important step forward in creating opportunities for international collaboration and integrating our expertise into the global market.”

The project aims to establish a high-tech industrial cluster in the U.S. and expand Kazakhstan’s footprint in the global market. The proposed R&D center will serve as a global platform for innovation in advanced coatings, sustainable industrial solutions, and technology integration, while creating hundreds of new jobs and strengthening bilateral trade and investment relations.

Statement by Zhandos Temirgali, President of 1Thirty Holding:

“We are committed to making Kazakhstan a trusted partner in global industry. Launching this project in the U.S. represents not only a milestone for our company but also a contribution to strengthening economic relations between our countries. We believe initiatives like this form a strong foundation for long-term technological and investment partnerships. We are ready to invest over 50 million dollars in a new project”
