In the heart of Antwerp, a groundbreaking initiative is taking shape: chemical company Vioneo, founded by A.P. Moller Holding is laying the groundwork for a fossil-free plastics production facility. It does this with the support of Sweco\u2019s engineering and consulting expertise.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n \t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Set to be operational by 2028, this innovative plant will produce approximately 300,000 tonnes of fossil-free plastics<\/strong> annually, slashing CO2 emissions by a staggering 1.5 million tonnes each year.<\/p>\n
By pioneering the low-carbon production of polypropylene (PP) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) using green methanol, this project demonstrates the tangible impact of the green transition<\/strong>, positioning Europe as a leader in defossilising the global plastics industry.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
