WE BUILD THE FUTURE

Discover the world of petrochemicals
The advances of chemistry depend on
products such as ethylene, propylene,
butadiene and benzene. These are the
raw materials of the petrochemical
industry, which turns them into products
used in 95 % of all manufactured goods.
Petrochemicals enhance product
lifecycles and increase the durability,
flexibility and convenience of products,
making materials more lightweight
and efficient. Such innovations may
be found in renewable energy, such as
windmills and solar panels, insulation
materials, healthcare, protection and
safety, long lasting infrastructures used
in construction and many more.
The Petrochemicals Europe flowchart
traces the main steps from raw materials
and feedstocks through to petrochemical
products, their derivatives and everyday
products. Only a few of these are
featured here, along with their end
applications, as they are too numerous
and their processes too complex.
But there is much more to petrochemicals.
Visit www.petrochemistry.eu, the gateway
to the world of petrochemicals online. And
take a tour of our interactive flowchart
on www.petrochemistry.eu/flowchart.
Choose and click on the petrochemical
product of your choice and its derivatives
to find your way on the path from raw
materials to everyday products.
We’ll be happy to send you additonal
copies of this flowchart and receive your
feedback or answer your questions.

The flowchart has been produced by Petrochemicals Europe, the voice of the European petrochemical industry. Petrochemicals Europe is an essential forum for anybody with an interest in our industry, ie regulators, legislators, press, scientific and educational communities, financial experts and consumers’ organisations. Its vision is for the European petrochemical industry to be recognised as the foundation of future economic success in Europe, fuelling innovation, manufacturing and employment. Petrochemicals Europe brings together about 90 member companies and is part of Cefic, the European Chemical Industry Council.
