Asahi Kasei, Mitsui Chemicals, and Mitsubishi Chemical partner for ethylene manufacturing facilities

As previously announced, the three companies have advanced discussions on specific measures to promote the carbon neutrality of ethylene manufacturing facilities, such as the shift to biomass-based feedstocks and low-carbon fuels in place of petroleum resources, as well as the establishment of an optimised production framework, including potential future capacity reductions. The discussions encompassed implementation timelines, the roles of each participating company, and the most appropriate form of joint operating entity.
