LyondellBasell to feature its polyolefins technology at Plastex

With compounding facilities in close proximity to the growing number of automotive manufacturing plants in Eastern Europe, the company can provide OEMs with the material consistency they demand, regardless of where their regional operations are located.

For example, components of FIAT's new 500/Cinquecento city car, which is produced in FIAT's Tichy, Poland plant, are specified in Italy and the resins are supplied to Eastern European-based auto manufacturing facilities to uniform specifications from LyondellBasell's Bayreuth, Germany, PP compounding plant.

Resins based on the company's proprietary Catalloy process technology will also be presented. These polymers are selected by customers for flexible packaging applications that require low seal initiation temperatures, broad processing windows, excellent optics and good mechanical properties.

“Through a unique combination of catalysts, technology and monomers, Catalloy process resins can also produce high performance characteristics used by customers in applications in automotive, wire & cable, geomembranes and roofing market areas where we see a growing need for our advanced polyolefins,” said Stoydin.

A strategic focus in a dynamic region:
LyondellBasell's exhibit will also showcase the company's pioneering PP and PE process technologies, and how they are addressing the growing needs of Central and Southern Europe.

As the global leader in polyolefins, LyondellBasell offers differentiating technologies that enable companies to remain competitive and responsive to market dynamics.

Through its Polish joint venture Basell Orlen Polyolefins (BOP), LyondellBasell serves the fast-growing markets in Eastern Europe, as well as Western Europe.

BOP operates two world-class plants a new 400 KT Spheripol polypropylene unit and a new 320 KT Hostalen high density polyethylene unit in Plock.

Alastian, one of LyondellBasell's online sales channels, is also available to customers in Central and Southern Europe for the past year.

“Positive customer feedback highlighted Alastian's excellent features, including accessibility to over 60 grades, daily price updates, a simple online ordering platform and easy follow up on existing and pending orders,” said Just In't Velt, Alastian Business Development and Marketing Manager.
