ADI chemicals: Global economic uncertainty

Share this article

In the January 2020 edition of the ADI chemicals newsletter, we covered how global economic indicators (GDP, PMI) continued to decline, signaling ongoing uncertainty.

In the Americas, there were moves in plastics recycling (Avangard/Dow), ethylene production (Formosa Plastics), and a joint venture acquisition. In Europe, BASF expanded polyurethane capacity, Nestlé invested in reducing virgin plastics, and Russia’s Gaz Sintez chose technology for a large methanol plant.
