Braskem (NYSE:BAK) has expanded its fleet with the addition of the Brave Future, a new ethane carrier vessel representing an investment of approximately R$ 500 million. The ship will operate between the United States, Mexico, and Brazil, enhancing the company's logistics autonomy and global competitiveness.

The vessel features impressive specifications including a 188-meter length, 36,000 m³ capacity, and ability to transport cargo at temperatures down to -104°C. Notably, its dual-fuel engine and advanced propulsion system achieve 40% lower CO₂ emissions compared to average fleets. The ship was financed by Ocean Yield and will be operated by Hartmann Reederei.

This marks Braskem's second dedicated ethane carrier, joining the Brilliant Future, with four more ships expected for delivery in 2026.

Braskem and Ardent Process Technologies have successfully completed their joint development program for an innovative olefin-paraffin separation technology called OptipermTM membrane technology. The collaboration, initiated in November 2020, involved testing at a demonstration unit within Braskem's facilities, meeting key performance metrics in membrane efficiency, durability, and operational stability. Following successful pilot results, Braskem plans to implement this breakthrough technology across its commercial facilities, with engineering and design work already underway for the first installation. The technology aims to enhance polyolefin production efficiency and supports Braskem's commitment to sustainable solutions and carbon neutrality goals.

Braskem (NYSE: BAK) celebrates the 15th anniversary of its I'm green™ bio-based portfolio while announcing a significant production milestone. The company's green ethylene unit in Triunfo, Brazil, has achieved a 37% capacity expansion, reaching 275,000 tons/year, up from the initial 200,000 tons/year in 2010.

The increased biopolymer production capacity will capture approximately 159,000 tons of CO₂ annually, equivalent to the carbon emissions of 12,000 U.S. citizens in one year. Green ethylene production captures about two tons of carbon dioxide for every ton produced, while maintaining the same quality and versatility as fossil-based alternatives. This expansion aligns with Braskem's goal of becoming carbon-neutral by 2050.

Braskem and Fitesa have announced a significant advancement in sustainable nonwoven materials with the introduction of I'm green™ bio-based high-density polyethylene (HDPE). This innovative material, designed specifically for nonwoven applications, is made from sugarcane-based bioethanol and offers a negative carbon footprint.

The new HDPE grade features optimal melting temperatures for stronger filaments, high-speed manufacturing capability, and full recyclability within existing polyethylene streams. Key benefits include:

• Enhanced spinning stability and process performance
• Same durability as traditional polyethylene
• Traceable bio-based content
• Reliable supply chain infrastructure

Fitesa, the first company to produce Spunbond nonwovens with I'm green™ bio-based polyethylene, will showcase these products at IDEA25 in Miami (April 29-May 1) at booth 901. This collaboration represents a significant step toward decarbonizing the hygiene industry while maintaining product quality and performance.
