Finland's Neste will supply Singapore-based chemicals company PCS with renewable material feedstock for production of plastics.
The Neste RE material will be supplied to PCS for use at a site on Jurong Island, Singapore. Neste RE is based on waste products including used cooking oil (UCO) or waste residues from vegetable oil processing.
PCS produces ethylene, propylene and butadiene for consumers across Asia-Pacific. The first deliveries from PCS will include butadiene, the company said. Initial buyers include Mitsubishi, Toray Plastics in Malaysia and Synthomer.
Neste previously said beverage maker Suntory will produce PET bottles derived from bio-paraxylene converted from bio-naphtha by the Finnish refiner.
