We have been active in the Asia-Pacific market since 1971, when we established our first joint venture in Japan. Today, that operation is still thriving, and we have expanded across the region from Greater China to the Indian subcontinent to serve the growing demands of this dynamic part of the world.
LyondellBasell Asian-Pacific customers are served by joint ventures, wholly owned operations and commercial representatives located throughout the region’s growing markets.
Because Asia-Pacific leads the world in demand for petrochemicals, it is a strategically important market for LyondellBasell. In recent years, the region has generated significant sales and volume for the company, and we project this will continue to rise along with Asia’s prospering economies.
