Asia to spearhead worldwide butadiene capacity additions through 2030
Asia is poised to become the frontrunner in the global butadiene capacity additions by 2030, mainly due to the increasing demand for butadiene from the region's vast automotive sector, which relies heavily on butadiene-derived products such as synthetic rubbers and plastics such as ABS [acrylonitrile butadiene styrene]. Asia is anticipated to add a butadiene production capacity of 4.91 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) during 2025 to 2030 from 19 planned and seven announced projects. The majority of these capacity additions are expected to be in China, with 2.84mtpa. However, the highest capacity addition in the region is likely from the Reliance Industries Jamnagar Butadiene Plant, an announced project in Gujarat, India. The project is in the approval stage currently and is expected to commence operations in 2030 with a capacity of 0.70mtpa. Reliance Industries holds the 100% equity stake while Reliance O2C is the designated operator. The CNOOC and Shell Petrochemicals Company Huizhou Butadiene Plant 3 in China, and the 'Haldia Petrochemicals Cuddalore Butadiene Plant' in India represent the other significant capacity additions in the region during the outlook period with capacities of 0.31mtpa and 0.27mtpa, respectively. Global upcoming butadiene capacity additions by region, 2025-2030 (mtpa) The Former Soviet Union (FSU), the Middle East and Europe are other regions that are expected to add a capacity of 0.21mtpa, 0.18mtpa, and 0.12mtpa, respectively, by 2030. Russia, Iran, and Poland are central to the capacity additions in these three regions, respectively. Further details of global butadiene capacity and capex analysis can be found in GlobalData's new report, 'Butadiene Industry Capacity and Capital Expenditure Forecasts with Details of All Active and Planned Plants to 2030.'

SIBUR develops new polyethylene grade for blown films
MOSCOW, RUSSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 11 July 2025 - SIBUR, the largest producer of polymers and synthetic rubbers in Russia, has developed a new grade of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) designed specifically to produce blown films, which are in high demand in the Turkish the blown film manufacturing process, melted polyethylene is inflated with air into a bubble, then cooled and rolled into a reel. This technology allows the production of films with excellent durability and elasticity as well as films of varying thicknesses. Blown film is widely used in food packaging and new grade of LLDPE marks another step in strengthening SIBUR's position in the global flexible packaging market. The product has successfully passed approval tests with key film producers in Turkey and is ready for large-scale supply. Russian processing partners will also be able to supply finished films made from SIBUR's feedstock to the Turkish LLDPE grade developed by SIBUR contains slip and antiblock additives, which reduce friction and prevent the blocking of film layers in rolls. This enables high-speed packaging operations and ensures the stability of film rolls during storage and new grade with additives eliminates the need for customers to purchase extra modifiers and masterbatches, making the technological process for polymer processors and film manufacturers much simpler and reducing their overall #SIBUR The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

SIBUR to expand cooperation with clients in Bangladesh
MOSCOW, RUSSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 1 July 2025 - SIBUR, Russia's largest producer of polymers and synthetic rubbers, sees potential to increase supplies to Bangladesh following the launch of the Amur Gas Chemical Complex, near the Pacific coast, in 2026. In late June, SIBUR, represented by executives from both its Moscow headquarters and its Shanghai office, held a client meeting in Dhaka to present its development plans for the country. Polymer consumption in Bangladesh – home to over 170 million people – is growing thanks to economic expansion and contract manufacturing by foreign companies and surpassed 1 million tonnes. The Amur complex in Russia's Far East will be strategically positioned to serve Asian markets, with Bangladesh being one of the top priorities. The Amur complex is one of the world's largest polymer production projects, with an annual capacity of 2.3 million tonnes of polyethylene and 0.4 million tonnes of polypropylene. The facility will rank in the first quartile of the global cost curve, ensuring its competitiveness under any price scenario. SIBUR benefits from access to competitively priced hydrocarbon resources in Russia. Another advantage of Russian polymers is their environmental profile. With new, more efficient production facilities, SIBUR is reducing the carbon footprint of its products. SIBUR has been supplying materials to Bangladesh for several years already, with shipments expected to reach 50 thousand tonnes in 2025. Once the Amur complex is operational, SIBUR sees potential to supply up to 200,000 tonnes of various polymer grades to Bangladesh, including high-density polyethylene and polypropylene copolymers. These materials are used in packaging, synthetic textiles, and construction – for pipes and insulation materials. Logistics for local processors will also improve. While SIBUR currently sells products in Bangladesh through partners with delivery to ports, it plans to use warehouses in the country as part of its supply chain, offering flexible delivery terms.
