Powerful building blocks for a wide range of chemical products.

Ethylene oxide is an important raw material used in large-scale chemical production such as glycols and ethanolamines. 

Ethylene amines are particularly reactive molecules which have the ability to change the properties of a wide range of chemicals. Our ethylene amines are used when manufacturing products for crop protection, pulp and paper, paints and coatings, construction and adhesives, oilfield treatment, polyurethane catalysts, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and textile.

Ethanolamines are used extensively in the manufacture of detergents, lubricants, building and construction additives, cutting oils, crop protection products, and countless other applications.

Storage and handling

(1) ISCC PLUS certification for sustainably sourced raw materials is determined using mass-balance approach as defined by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) standard.

Green ethylene oxide, ethylene amines and ethanolamines

As a leading global producer of ethylene amines and surfactants, we are able to better serve our customers by supplying sustainable alternatives that contribute to significant product carbon footprint reduction. These green alternatives, based on sustainably sourced raw materials, deliver the same high quality and performance as the standard chemistries.

We have been awarded the ISCC PLUS certification1 for the production of green ethylene oxide, ethanolamines, and ethylene amines, and the surfactants derived from these raw materials.
