Braskem, a global petrochemical company that develops sustainable chemical and plastic solutions to improve people's lives, is participating in K 2025, the world's largest international trade fair for the plastics and rubber industry, with a robust portfolio filled with sustainable solutions. At the event held in Germany from October 8 to 15, the company reaffirms its leadership in biopolymer production and promotes the transition to a carbon-neutral circular economy.
"Braskem offers its clients a complete ecosystem with scalable sustainable solutions, along with services and initiatives that support our stakeholders in achieving their sustainability commitments, which in turn enhances our competitiveness in the sector," says Americo Bartilotti, Braskem's Commercial Vice President for South America.

A regular participant at K Fair since 2010, Braskem showcases the latest advancements in its sustainable portfolio at this year's edition. Highlights include:

• Renewable Carbon: I'm greenT bio-based solutions, produced from sugarcane ethanol, featuring a negative carbon footprint and international certification;
• Circular Carbon: WenewT ecosystem solutions with resins and chemicals derived from recycling, designed to give new life to plastic waste and promote material circularity.

"Advancing solutions that help reduce CO² emissions is at the heart of our journey to drive circularity and combat climate change. That's why we offer a complete ecosystem of sustainable solutions that keep carbon in the cycle, reinforce supply chain responsibility, and go hand in hand with innovation," adds Americo.

Leadership in Sustainable Development

In 2010, Braskem began producing polyethylene from sugarcane ethanol. Over the years, its product range has evolved to include EVA and I'm greenT bio-based polyethylene wax, making its portfolio even more comprehensive and ideal for companies seeking to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through raw materials. Today, I'm greenT bio-based polyethylene is present in over 40 countries and used by more than 200 companies and brands worldwide.

Braskem also operates the Responsible Ethanol Purchasing Program, which ensures greater supply chain control to comply with standards related to quality, human rights, and social responsibility.
"In this way, we generate a positive impact on society, ensure safe working conditions, and extend our concern for our product to the supply chain behind the raw materials we use," says Americo.

Another pillar of the company's leadership in sustainable development and competitiveness is the WenewT ecosystem, which includes a complete portfolio of products with recycled content. By the end of 2024, the catalog already featured more than 55 product types, with sales exceeding 85,000 tons - a growth of more than 35 times since 2019.
During K 2025, visitors will have the opportunity to explore these and other products from the company.

The goal of achieving a carbon-neutral circular economy also involves design - a crucial step at the beginning of the cycle. That's why CazooloT, Braskem's circular packaging design lab, is also present at K 2025. The lab focuses on creating packaging that reduces environmental impact and aligns with design principles centered on recyclability, optimization, reuse, and redesign throughout the consumer's circular journey.

Commitment to Carbon Circularity

Braskem offers solutions that contribute to eliminating plastic waste and fighting climate change, with a focus on driving innovation and promoting a responsible supply chain - adding value to both business and people's lives. This offering aligns with the company's goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 15% and expand its biopolymer portfolio to 1 million tons by 2030.
