AzMeCo Participates in ”CTE 2013“ International Environmental Exhibition
The 4th Caspian: Technologies for Environment (CTE 2013) International Exhibition has officially opened at the Baku Expo Center, gathering leading companies and organizations focused on environmental innovation. AzMeCo—the owner and operator of the first methanol plant in the region—is among the key participants showcasing its commitment to sustainable and clean technologies.

At the AzMeCo stand, designed to highlight the company’s environmental values, visitors were introduced to the AzMeCo Methanol Project and the concept of the methanol economy. The exhibit focused on the product’s environmental benefits, energy efficiency, and its diverse applications. Methanol, produced at AzMeCo’s state-of-the-art plant in the Garadagh district, is used in a wide range of everyday products such as paints, adhesives, aerosols, varnishes, and optical media like CDs and DVDs.

The methanol plant, commissioned earlier this year, incorporates the latest technological advancements and modern equipment, making it one of the most efficient and environmentally friendly operations of its kind. Methanol is widely recognized as a clean alternative fuel; vehicles running on methanol emit significantly lower levels of carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides compared to gasoline-powered vehicles.
AzMeCo Greenhouse Division & AzmECO Park Project
Also featured at AzMeCo’s stand was the AzMeCo Greenhouse Division, presenting the innovative AzmECO Park project—planned to be the largest eco-park in Azerbaijan. The park will be located adjacent to the methanol plant and aims to become a center for environmental education and recreation.
Landscape architect Mr. Fikret Shimshek shared details about the project:
“AzmECO Park is a unique initiative. It will be a place for rest, learning, and environmental awareness. The park will include a school for gardeners, an educational center for students, areas for cultivating ornamental plants, and a botanical garden featuring endemic Azerbaijani plant species.”
