These priorities have led to investments in circular product-solutions and our ability to accept chemically recycled feedstock.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yousef Abdullah Al-Benyan, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, \u201cSABIC witnessed excellent progress and we continued to recognize global concerns for creating a more sustainable society. Demand for circular solutions increased this year, as did opportunities for renewable energy and regional climate regulations. We have circular economy strategies that will lead to industry-leading projects in all our global regions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>SABIC\u2019s impressive and growing range of circular solutions include a chemical recycling mega-project that will turn mixed plastic waste back into the original polymer; a semi-commercial, pre-treatment facility to increase the supply of chemically recycled feedstocks; and the TRUCIRCLE\u2122 portfolio of circular solutions, which are already helping SABIC\u2019s customers in several key markets to reach their own sustainable goals.<\/p>\n<p>The Sustainability Report highlights how SABIC works with \u2013 and is sometimes a driving force behind \u2013 international organizations that are contributing to a sustainable world and helping to tackle some of the biggest challenges facing the industry and the planet. It is a transparent insight into SABIC\u2019s approach to delivering \u2018Chemistry that Matters\u2122\u2019 to customers, suppliers, governments, NGOs, and communities all over the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SABIC has released its Sustainability Report 2019, covering performance over the past year and detailing how sustainability fits into the company\u2019s broader global business strategy.
