NPE2024: SABIC Showcasing Progress in Plastic Innovation for a More Sustainable Future
|
| SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, is highlighting at NPE2024 (Booth #S19005; May 6-10 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida) a wide range of solutions that demonstrate the value of plastics for a more sustainable future. Under the theme “Collaborating to Create the Future,” the company is presenting innovative solutions that are available today and others that are on their way to broader adoption. This includes examples of the company’s work with manufacturers and others across the value chain on circular plastic solutions available under its TRUCIRCLE program and new approaches with plastics under its BLUEHERO initiative that can help in the shift to electrification.
“Since the last NPE in 2018, SABIC has taken giant strides forward in creating pathways for plastics to make valued contributions toward resolving critical global challenges and driving circularity,” Sami Al-Osaimi, executive vice president, Polymers, SABIC, said. “The progress that we have made is on display in our booth and it would not have been possible without the ingenuity of our people and teams and the focus we have had on collaborating with value chain partners who share our passion for creating a brighter future. We are so thrilled to be with everyone in Orlando and use this time to invite more purpose-driven, like-minded innovators to join forces with us to drive meaningful change and transformation.” Examples of SABIC’s developments in plastics and its collaborations are evident across spaces in the booth covering the spectrum of the following industries: advanced packaging, automotive/transportation, building and construction, consumer goods, electrical and electronics, and hygiene and healthcare. Within each of those areas, visitors can see end-use applications produced with polymers from the company’s TRUCIRCLE and portfolio of solutions – certified circular, renewable and mechanically recycled content and closed-loop solutions. SABIC’s support of the mission to enable electrification is on display in two areas: a space within the Transportation section of the booth showcasing the company’s BLUEHERO initiative and an area for visitors to experience racecar simulators that help highlight SABIC’s role as Principal and Innovation Partner to the Formula E electric racing series. The topic of sustainability is woven throughout SABIC’s booth, emphasizes SABIC’s commitment to becoming carbon neutral by 2050, including its goal of a 20% reduction in absolute greenhouse emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 2030. Outside of its booth, SABIC is participating in NPE’s new Sustainability Hub. Open to all registered attendees, this exhibit area shows the many steps the plastics industry is taking toward enhancing its sustainable footprint. SABIC will be part of the Materials section, providing an additional touch point for visitors to learn more about its offering of circular products and services. SABIC’s primary booth space with its diversity of exhibited solutions speaks to the company’s broad plastics portfolio, from its highly engineered thermoplastics to its polyolefin-based materials, which includes polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) – and with the latter including grades from the company’s PE plant in San Patricio County, Texas, which began operating in early 2022 as part of Gulf Coast Growth Ventures, a joint venture of ExxonMobil and SABIC.
