A.P. Moller launches fossil-free plastic resins venture Vioneo

In Denmark, A.P. Moller Holding has launched Vioneo, a new venture dedicated to transforming plastics production. Vioneo will manufacture fossil-free plastic resins and significantly reduce the carbon footprint associated with plastics production.

Vioneo has designed a production method utilizing an innovative and proven technology to produce fossil-free polypropylene and polyethylene at scale, using green methanol as a feedstock. This technology ensures a fully segregated and traceable supply chain, avoiding the mixing of non-certified and certified feedstocks. The production will be powered by renewable electricity, significantly reducing GHG emissions. The end-product will be 100% fossil-free and ISCC plus certified, suitable for applications across all sectors including medical appliances, home goods, automotive and packaging.
