Driving the green transformation of traditional industries requires the joint efforts of upstream and downstream players in the industry chain. Cooperation with LyondellBasell is a crucial link in Nippon Paint's green development journey. Bai Yi, president of Nippon Paint China's Procurement Headquarters, said: "Innovating the packaging of coating-system products to create environment-friendly products is an indispensable part of Nippon Paint's green development, and it is also a deep response to the nation's 'dual carbon' goals and the green transformation of social and economic development. This cooperation with LyondellBasell to expand the application of recycled plastic in coating packaging means we are striding forward on the path of green sustainability. And by linking upstream and downstream partners in the industry chain, Nippon Paint will continue to explore new ideas for a green ecology and contribute to protecting the natural environment."

LyondellBasell is one of the world's leading companies in plastics, chemicals and refining, and its products, materials and technologies are advancing sustainable solutions in more than 100 international markets, including food safety, clean water use, healthcare and fuel efficiency. Leveraging its strengths in raw materials, operations and technology, LyondellBasell launched the Circulen series of products, among which CirculenRecover polypropylene polymer is made by mechanically recycling post-consumer plastic waste, helping to reduce plastic waste entering the environment, thereby promoting the circular economy and enhancing the sustainable value of consumer products.

The recycled plastic packaging pail that Nippon Paint and LyondellBasell cooperated on is precisely made using CirculenRecover polypropylene polymer; through an efficient recycling process for plastic waste, it achieves a lower carbon footprint, offering a recycled-plastic product that combines sustainability with high quality, giving plastic waste a "second life". At the ChinaReplas2022 Third Plastics Recycling and Regeneration Golden Apple Awards, Nippon Paint won the "Golden Apple" Award for Innovative Application of Recycled Materials with this packaging pail, receiving unanimous recognition from the expert judges in terms of both environmental and commercial benefits. With the continued advancement of the strategic cooperation, Nippon Paint will expand the application of this green and eco-friendly plastic packaging in coating-system products, giving more products a "green new coat".

In this regard, Fu Limin, vice president of LyondellBasell China's Joint Venture Management and Polyolefins business, said: "We are delighted to release the co-created results together with Nippon Paint; this is an important attempt by us to explore recycled plastic in the field of sustainable packaging. We hope to continuously expand local cooperation and accelerate the local supply of CirculenRecover products. By linking global resources and innovative technology, we will drive the low-carbon transformation of local industrial and value chains and, together with industry partners, shape the future of the circular economy."

The co-creation with LyondellBasell will not only bring environmental innovation in packaging, but is also an important part of Nippon Paint's "Green Action" to examine every step of the carbon footprint across the entire value chain. Taking 'Forever Renewing the Earth's Splendor' as the highest guiding principle of corporate social responsibility, Nippon Paint will join hands with industry partners represented by LyondellBasell to continue creating eco-friendly, healthy and safe green products, refreshing green livable spaces, confronting global challenges such as environmental problems and climate change, and moving toward a future of green development.
