Headquartered in the United States, with an office in São Paulo, Brazil, Sustainea has a team of professionals with in-depth knowledge of the chemical industry and the creation and sale of sustainable solutions. 

The business plan envisages the construction of three industrial plants, with the first unit slated for operational startup in 2026, taking advantage of market opportunities and feedstock availability. The locations where the industrial units will be built have not been defined yet and could be in Europe, Asia, the United States or Brazil.  The expectation in the business plan is that, once the technology is approved, the plants will have a combined production capacity of up to 700,000 tons per year of bioMEG.

Sustainea combines Braskem’s expertise in the industrial production and sale of chemicals and plastics made from renewable sources with Sojitz’s strong presence in Asia, a region that concentrates 80% of the global MEG market and where its consumption registers the highest growth.
