Market leader in bioplastics chooses port of Rotterdam

Braskem, the world’s largest producer of biopolymers, has moved its storage facility for this type of bioplastics from Antwerp to Rotterdam. This strengthens Rotterdam Polymer Hub’s central logistical role in the storage and transit of bioplastics in Europe. The Brazilian petrochemical company, whose headquarters for Europe and Asia are located in Rotterdam, sees a key role for the Dutch port city and has chosen Rotterdam Polymer Hub, the plastic and polymer warehouse that opened in Rotterdam in 2018. The new storage facility will be the strategic hub for all biopolymers for the European and Asian markets.
