Committed to sustainable development
As growing populations gain increased access to energy, rising living standards in many parts of the world will create the largest expansion of the global middle class in history, meaning more demand for homes, transportation, electricity, consumer goods and the energy to power them all. The challenge is to satisfy this growing demand, while reducing the risks of climate change – The Dual Challenge.
ExxonMobil Product Solutions manages a portfolio of commodity and unique performance products that provide the building blocks to meet growing global demand for essential products, creating innovative solutions that improve vast touchpoints in people’s lives.

Working to meet growing demand safely and responsibly
By 2040 the world’s population is likely to grow to more than 9 billion. Raising living standards in many parts of the world will create the largest expansion of the global middle class in history. Meaning more demand for homes, transportation, electricity, consumer goods and the energy to power them all.

Turning discarded milk tea cups to useful phone cases
Takeaway beverage cups and food containers, typically made of polypropylene, are usually not recycled after use because they become brittle after recycling. Through our collaboration with Meituan Waimai, HeyTea, TRASHAUS and Rhino, Vistamaxx™ performance polymers turned 1,900 discarded milk tea cups into 3,800 phone cases with improved toughness, durability and comfortable touch.

Heavy duty sacks made with multi-cycle recycled PE
Heavy duty sacks (HDS) can be recycled* multiple times and re-used to produce new sacks. Using up to 37% recycled* HDS film with virgin performance PE polymers maintains the performance of new sacks, while tracing and tracking technology helps ensure quality.*Recyclable in communities that have programs and facilities in place that collect and recycle these items.

Polypropylene offers a durable and sustainable solution for food service
By incorporating polypropylene in the manufacture of food service containers that can be returned, sanitized and reused daily – and then recycled at end of life – we’re rethinking what’s possible in food service packaging and delivery.

Foamable polypropylene (PP) that challenges reality
First foamable PP that enables customers to unlock opportunities in high-volume applications that benefit from low density and excellent insulation while maintaining standout PP properties:
• Recyclable* – Allows post-industrial and post-consumer recycling*, reducing footprint and cost without compromising product integrity.
• Lightweight – Reduces material requirements. Maintains rigidity, even at low densities – more material made with less polymer for lighter weight and reduced footprint.*Recyclable in communities that have programs and facilities in place that collect and recycle these items.

Advanced plastics pave the way for sustainability and fuel efficiency
Around the world the automotive industry is facing many challenges, not the least of which is a desire to produce more efficient vehicles while improving fuel efficiency, safety, vehicle performance and driver comfort.
Auto manufacturers are also seeking ways to meet current government regulations, which call for cars and light trucks to get 54.5 miles per gallon (MPG) by 2025. In order to meet these current standards, auto makers have turned to plastic parts, which are just as durable as other materials, but are much lighter.

OASE® sulfexx™ solvent enables selective removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) while minimizing the co-absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2)
Raising the bar: OASE sulfexx solvent enables selective removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) while minimizing the co-absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2). The new solvent is based on a new proprietary amine that allows gas treatment units to achieve high absorption capacity with low energy consumption for regeneration. The result is lower operating costs, smaller equipment, and lower capital investments than conventional amine gas treatment units.
