Westlake Chemical Corporation announced its Vinnolit subsidiary in Germany launched GreenVin Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), a lower-carbon alternative PVC, which is one of the most widely utilized plastics in the construction, automotive and medical sectors.

“Market demand for lower-carbon plastics and materials is rising rapidly as more customers are seeking ways to reduce their carbon footprints and meet their sustainability goals,” said Vice President, Europe & Asia Vinyls Chemicals, Dr. Karl-Martin Schellerer. “GreenVin PVC performs as well as traditional PVC while offering a more climate-friendly product that our customers can feel good about using. This product and the entire GreenVin product line are part of our overall commitment to meeting society’s needs and enabling a better future.”

The introduction of GreenVin PVC follows the market launch of GreenVin caustic soda earlier this year, with the product line expected to extend into the company’s vinyl chloride and hydrogen products in the future. Caustic soda is an essential ingredient for the production of many materials, including detergents, construction materials, pulp and paper, pharmaceuticals and water treatment products.
