About Borealis
Borealis Polymere GmbH is part of the Borealis Group, one of the largest plastics manufacturers in the world. The plant is located in the center of the "Bavarian Chemical Triangle", north of the city of Burghausen, and was voted one of the top 40 companies in the "Germany's Best Employers 2011" survey.
Two plants for the production of polypropylene and one for polyethylene are operated at this site. The polypropylene production facility was recently expanded. In this new PP plant, over 330,000 tons of polypropylene are produced annually for the European market using the company's own Borstar® technology.
The plastic pellets produced are further processed into fibers, films, hollow bodies or semi-finished products by business customers.
The new capacities will primarily be processed in the area of cast and blown film applications and will therefore be used for food, household, transport and medical packaging, detergent and cosmetic bottles as well as for fibers for hygiene applications.
In addition to the production facilities in Burghausen, there are other sites in Central Europe in Schwechat (Austria), Monza (Italy), Piesteritz (Germany) and Linz (Austria), where the Borealis Group's Innovation Headquarters are also located.
