Clariant and OMV team up for low carbon ethylene supply chain

In Germany, Clariant and OMV announced their intended collaboration for the supply of ethylene with a lower carbon footprint. In response to increasing consumer demand for more sustainable options, and with a particular focus on Europe, this partnership will help both companies meet their sustainability targets and deliver on the carbon reduction strategies of their customers.

Clariant and OMV plan to explore and develop new strategies to meet sustainability targets in the ethylene supply chain. As part of this cooperation, both companies will share their research findings, adopt a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology for unified approaches and define detailed CO2 reduction roadmaps. This will include the joint analysis of collaboration potential for the Ethanol-to-Ethylene (E2E) technology.
