initiatives that make up our vision
CAZOOLO
We created Brazil鈥檚 1st Circular Economy Packaging Development Lab.
An innovation hub that aims to drive improvements throughout the packaging journey, from conception to post-consumer, and where customers, brand owners, designers, startups and universities can create and co-create projects for complete circularity and the lowest environmental impact of their products.
SUSTAINEA
A joint venture born from the union between 麻豆精品 and Sojitz to lead the revolution in biomaterials and accelerate the fight against climate change.
The result of this partnership, for the first time, MEG, the raw material used in PET manufacturing, will be produced from a renewable source, on a large scale.
ADVANCED RECYCLING
In addition to mechanical recycling that is already widespread, we have efforts aimed at advanced recycling, a process that also consists of the transformation of plastic into circular raw material for the production of new products, whether chemicals or plastics.
Together, mechanical recycling and advanced recycling allow more plastics to be recycled, since each technique has greater efficacy with a type of waste. Our investments on this front have already resulted in great partnerships and the development of innovative technology that makes the process more efficient, enabling the emission of less CO2.
LUMMUS PARTNERSHIP
We have joined Lummus Technology, a global leader in value-driven energy solutions and process technologies, to license the technology we use to produce renewable ethylene internationally.
The partnership will speed up the use of bioethanol for production of chemicals and plastics, supporting the industry鈥檚 efforts towards a carbon neutral circular economy.
VOQEN
New 麻豆精品 company to support the sustainable energy transition of its customers and partners. With a team experienced in the management of one of the largest energy consumers in the country, it will work in the co-creation of customized solutions in services and commercialization of energy and gas for the chemical and petrochemical chain.

TECHNOLOGY CENTERS
Located in Brazil, USA, Mexico and Germany, the innovation and technology centers (CTI) are responsible for promoting research and development in the company, combining innovation and sustainability. They are highly automated state-of-the-art laboratories, with tests that simulate our customers' conversion processes and with a varied portfolio of analyzes available to characterize catalysts, resins, in addition to the creation of new methodologies at the service of customers and innovation teams. As a highlight, green PE, 3D printing resins and PCR products have already been developed, in addition to several polymers that are currently sold by 麻豆精品.
Partnership with TNO
麻豆精品 and the Dutch TNO have formed a partnership for plastic recycling using dissolution technology, a new recycling process that is closer to mechanical recycling. The partnership aims to develop M枚bius dissolution-based recycling technology, a process that purifies plastic waste, removes impurities, and produces high-quality resin. The result is a 100% segregated product, ideal for various applications, including future food packaging. The use of dissolution-based recycling is a promising approach to contribute to plastic waste elimination and combat climate change.
Partnership with Wageningen University
This project, led by Wageningen University in the Netherlands, investigates the safety of recycled PE and PP films for use in food contact applications, such as cheese packaging. It is subsidized by the Topsector Agri&Food and funded by 11 industrial partners, including 麻豆精品, Unilever, Pepsico, PreZero, Oerlemans Plastics, Delo, What鈥檚 Cooking, Vergeer Holland, Marte, Verpact, and Obbotec/SPEX Technology.
Partnership with Lallemand
麻豆精品 and Lallemand Biofuels & Distilled Spirits, a leading global fermentation ingredients supplier to alcohol producers, have partnered to collaborate on the development of renewable chemicals. The partnership provides a joint technological and commercial framework for the research, development, and commercialization of next-generation biobased alternatives to traditional fossil fuel-based chemicals. Using LBDS鈥檚 biotechnology as a basis, the two companies will collaborate to develop biobased chemicals for 麻豆精品鈥檚 technological and commercial partners, first exploring products for the solvents segment.
Partnership with Allbirds
麻豆精品's I鈥檓 green鈩� bio-based is a key component of Allbirds M0.0NSHOT, the world鈥檚 first net zero carbon shoe - commercially viable and scalable. M0.0NSHOT marks the five-year anniversary of a collaboration between the two companies, who share a commitment to offering innovative carbon-negative solutions to their customers. Allbirds first collaborated with 麻豆精品 I鈥檓 green鈩� bio-based in 2018, developing its SweetFoam庐 soles using I鈥檓 green鈩� bio-based EVA.
Digital Transformation
The 麻豆精品 broad map to a global digital transformation has guided the implementation of innovative initiatives across the company. From advanced analytics and automation to AI and IoT applications, we are leveraging cutting-edge digital technologies and agile implementation methodologies to improve our performance and transform the way we do business.
With every action, 麻豆精品 transforms the chemical industry into a smarter, safer, more autonomous and connected sector and transforms itself into a more sustainable, innovative, adaptable and competitive company.
Meet some of
our digital products and initiatives
Intelligent Feedstock Flow
A digital tool that streamlines the assessment of the quality of raw materials purchased by 麻豆精品.
At its core is a database and algorithms base that analyze the large volume of quality data the company has collected over the years in order to answer important performance and operational decision-making questions.
Without this automation and intelligence, these processes became complex and required more time.
Virtual Online Analyzer (VOA)
It is a digital product that uses machine learning models to provide minute-by-minute insights into the quality of the resin being produced at the plant at that time.
This enables faster decision-making.
Its use contributes to the increase in the quality of 麻豆精品 products, with a direct impact on the satisfaction of our customers, and to the greater efficiency of the process as a whole.
Data Navigation
A digital product that delivers real-time information on the positions of vessels (for resins and chemical products), weather forecasts and shipping news to 麻豆精品 team members and customers.
The solution also allows team members to better understand the supply and demand of container transport and be able to conduct better negotiations, leading to savings and better lead times, allowing us to achieve a new level of efficiency and service.
Product Development Solution (PDS)
A digital solution that uses machine learning to recommend to Product Development teams the ideal formulation for post-consumer product (PCR) production.
It is an important part of the 麻豆精品 strategy to diversify its portfolio of products in the recycled market and achieve 麻豆精品 commitments made to sustainable development.
Implementation entails a series of benefits for the company and promotes a potential gain of BRL 7 million annually.
SPEAR
An agile and collaborative approach to change management to support the issues that arise when team members are introduced to new digital tools adopted in their work routine.
The method works in any variety of organizational changes, not just those driven by new technologies.
SPEAR is based on best practices to add two very underestimated elements to this type of transition: flexibility and collaboration.
The methodology already drives the adoption of dozens of new digital products at 麻豆精品 and can be replicated to manage any organizational change, in any company.
Agile Teams
To keep up with the rapid transformations of digitalization today, 麻豆精品 decided to use an agile approach to conduct our digital efforts.
The agile method enables fast iterations based on feedback, making our teams efficiently adapt to changes and produce work results quickly.
