Sustainable solutions provider and global leader within polyols Perstorp is taking a stand by converting a large majority of the polyols produced at their largest production plant in Perstorp, Sweden, to Pro-Environment products. By doing this, Perstorp will enable reduced greenhouse gas emissions for its polyol customers and downstream value chains.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perstorp, a leading sustainability-driven global specialty chemicals company, is continuing their sustainability journey towards becoming finite material neutral and aligning with the Paris Agreement, by converting all base polyols produced at their Perstorp plant \u2013 Pentaerythritol (Penta), Neopentyl glycol (Neo) and Trimethylolpropane (TMP) \u2013 to Pro-Environment. From 2023, all fossil versions of the base polyols produced at the Perstorp plant will be replaced by Pro-Environment grades (Voxtar\u2122, Evyrone\u2122 & Neeture\u2122) with partly renewable or recycled origin, based on a traceable mass-balance concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pro-Environment products are certified with ISCC PLUS, and are identical to the fossil-based versions, meaning that they are drop-in replacements. The products benefit customers and the value chain by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and by supporting the transition to renewable or recycled materials, in other words supporting the challenge of reaching climate neutrality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPhasing out the fossil base polyols produced at the site in Perstorp is a bold move, but we are convinced that this is the only way forward for us, as an industry, to align with the Paris Agreement and significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\u201d says Jan Secher<\/strong>, CEO of Perstorp Group. \u201cAs an upstream company in the chemical industry we can, and should, make a positive impact across multiple value-chains by offering products with a reduced carbon footprint.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Perstorp introduced the first Pro-Environment polyol already 2010, and in 2017, Perstorp announced the long-term ambition to become Finite Material Neutral. Since late 2021, the company has set Science-based emission reduction targets aligned with the Paris agreement. The transition to Pro-Environment polyols will significantly reduce Perstorp\u2019s usage of finite materials, and will also provide the market with products with a lower carbon footprint, hence contributing towards Perstorp, and its customers, reaching their Scope 3 reduction targets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
