Borealis

Borealis, one of the world’s leading plastics suppliers

Borealis is a leading supplier of enhanced polyolefin plastics - polyethylene and polypropylene - producing more than 3.5 million tonnes per year.

PE and PP are highly versatile plastics which are converted into thousands of everyday products from food packaging and personal hygiene, to toys, wire and cable insulation, automotive components, building materials, and pipes for water and gas. Polyolefins are constantly evolving in properties and performance as they replace conventional materials like paper, glass, concrete and metal, as well as other plastics.

Borealis’ own Borstar® process technology is bringing PE and PP into even more new areas of application. These are plastics for the future that add value to our everyday lives.

We serve customers through nine European Customer Service Centres. Borealis and Borouge products are marketed jointly in the Middle East and Asia-Pacific through Borouge, a joint venture with the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC).

Borealis has six business units: Commercial Services, Engineering Applications, Film & Fibre, Moulding, Pipe and Wire & Cable. Our research and development is consolidated at four Innovation Centres to speed the time to market of new products.
