Neste, a leading provider of renewable diesel and renewable aviation fuel and an expert in delivering drop-in renewable and circular polymers and chemicals solutions, opened a new office in Düsseldorf, Germany, to serve as the global hub for its renewable polymers and chemicals business unit. The business unit provides the plastics and chemicals industries globally with solutions derived from biomass and chemically recycled plastic waste, enabling sustainability-oriented companies to reduce their dependence on crude oil and reach their own sustainability targets.
The business unit and Neste’s operations in Germany will be headed by Mercedes Alonso, who joined Neste on September 1, 2019, as executive vice president and a member of Neste executive committee.
By concentrating commercial operations of its renewable polymers and chemicals business into one location, Neste strives to further accelerate business growth and support its strategic aim of becoming the preferred partner as a provider of sustainable renewable and circular solutions to forerunner brands.
Germany marks the 14th country of operation for Neste. While planning to employ new talent both locally and internationally, Neste’s office in Düsseldorf already hosts an international multidisciplinary team responsible for the commercial development of Neste’s renewable polymers and chemicals business.
