LyondellBasell Demonstrates Commitment to Sustainability with Launch of +LC (Low Carbon) Solutions

“Sustainability is woven into the fabric of our business strategy,” noted Kimberly Foley, executive vice president, I&D and Refining at LyondellBasell. “The +LC solutions mark a critical step for our customers as they increasingly shift towards more ambitious GHG emissions reduction targets and product circularity. These low-carbon solutions will use renewable, bio-based and recycled feedstocks that empower our customers to reduce their Scope 3 GHG emissions. We have applied our long history of innovation, customer-centric approach, and focus on sustainability to engineer a product range that aligns both with our company’s and our customers’ sustainability ambitions.”

Building on a 70-year legacy of innovation and quality in the I&D sector, LyondellBasell enhances its already robust portfolio with the new +LC product range. The products include core I&D offerings such as styrene monomers, ethylene, and propylene oxide (PO), with applications in various sectors, from insulation materials to automotive and consumer goods. This announcement follows the recent startup of LyondellBasell’s propylene oxide and tertiary butyl alcohol (PO/TBA) plant in Texas, further cementing the company’s position as a global leader in the I&D sector with significant annual production capacities. This PO/TBA unit has an annual capacity of 470 thousand metric tons of PO, as well as one million metric tons of TBA and its derivatives.
