- Neste will supply renewable Neste RE to PCS in Singapore.
- PCS will produce essential products, such as ethylene, propylene or butadiene, for customers in various industries.
Neste and Singapore-based essential chemicals company PCS Pte. Ltd. (“PCS”) have launched a cooperation for the supply of renewable solutions to Southeast Asia’s chemicals industry. The collaboration aims at introducing renewable raw materials to replace fossil ones in chemicals and plastics value chains in the region.
Neste will supply PCS with Neste RE™, a renewable material for the production of chemicals and plastics. Based on renewable wastes, such as used cooking oil, or residues from vegetable oil processing, Neste RE will serve as a replacement for fossil raw materials used at PCS facilities on Jurong Island in Singapore. Using Neste RE, PCS will produce essential products, such as ethylene, propylene or butadiene, across its portfolio. These essential products will then be supplied to customers in various sectors across the region. First deliveries will include butadiene to Mitsubishi Corporation, Toray Plastics (Malaysia) Sdn Berhad and Synthomer Sdn Bhd, through which renewable solutions will make their way to end user applications in the industry. While the products from these ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) certified supply chains will be equal to their fossil counterparts in terms of quality, safety and performance, the use of renewable instead of fossil raw materials will reduce their carbon footprint.
