(chemmonitor) -- The Mexico-based
company Idesa and the Sao Paulo-headquartered Brazilian petrochemicals
manufacturer Braskem formed a JV Braskem Idesa, which together with the US-based
corporation GE will start polyethylene (PE) complex.
It will result in reduction of Mexico usage of the imported product used in
manufacturing and packaging. GE applies the plant with its compressor
technology.
Currently, Mexico has to import more than a half of all locally used PE.
