#OMV and Borealis have entered into long-term feedstock supply agreements for their recycling facilities with TOMRA Feedstock, a subsidiary of leading sorting technology producer TOMRA. These agreements ensure a consistent supply of sustainable and high-quality raw materials for OMV Group’s recycling operations. OMV will process feedstock supplied from TOMRA Feedstock plants in its ReOil® plants in Austria, while Borealis will process feedstock produced by TOMRA at its mechanical #recycling operations in Europe. The feedstock will be produced from mixed post-consumer plastic material otherwise lost to landfill and incineration at a first-of-its-kind sorting facility currently being developed by TOMRA in Germany. By contributing to the OMV Group’s strategic targets of producing circular products and solutions, these agreements play a crucial role in closing the loop in plastics to accelerate the transition to a #circulareconomy.

A key trend in the petrochemicals industry has been its decisive shift towards decarbonisation. 🌎♻️    This shift is driving the adoption of sustainable business models, such as increased utilisation of bio-based feedstock and growing interest in recyclable polymers.    These innovative technologies, pivotal in supporting major players' decarbonisation efforts, also provide opportunities for expansion. For instance, LyondellBasell’s recent acquisition which secured 25% of the joint venture between Agilyx and ExxonMobil was a decisive move to accelerate their plastic waste recycling capacity.     This deal is just one of many key transactions we have featured. For a comprehensive list of transactions, we have been tracking in the petrochemicals sector, please reach out to our Head of Data Matthew Wise.    #Decarbonisation #Petrochemicals #Recycling #Biobasedfeedstock
