Shell Chemicals supplies Braksem bio-attributed and bio-circular propylene feedstocks

In Texas, Shell Chemicals recently started to supply Braskem with bio-attributed and bio-circular propylene feedstocks, based on a mass balance approach and independently certified by a third party.

Braskem will utilize such feedstocks for the manufacture of bio-attributed and bio-circular polypropylene enabling more sustainable options for growing consumer demand in the packaging, film, automotive, and consumer goods markets.

The recent collaboration between Shell and Braskem in Europe, aimed at enhancing the utilization of circular content in Braskem’s polypropylene production, reinforces Braskem’s commitment to achieving carbon neutrality and advancing its circular economy goals by 2050.
