In Germany, cleaning products giant Henkel is using biobased plastic from Houston’s LyondellBasell in its toilet cleaner packaging.

The packaging will specifically use LyondellBasell’s CirculenRenew for the transparent plastic  cage of Henkel’s WC Frisch/Bref solid toilet rim blocks.

CirculenRenew polymers are made from renewable feedstocks, such as used cooking oil, through a mass balance approach that enables the production of plastic materials with a 44% lower carbon footprint compared to traditional fossil-based sources.

“Together with partners like Henkel, we are accelerating the availability of high-performance polymers — mechanically and chemically recycled and renewable-based — at scale through our comprehensive CirculenRenew portfolio,” Paula Sanabria Luque, senior director, marketing and commercial development, circular and low carbon solutions, EMEAI, at LyondellBasell, told Packaging Insights.
