LyondellBasell released its 2025 Sustainability Report, 'Vision to Value: Maintaining Our Focus,' on April 14, 2026. The report details the company's strong operational performance, industry-leading safety record with a total recordable incident rate of 0.120, and advancements in circular and low-carbon solutions during 2025. Key highlights include a reduction of approximately 3.2 million metric tons in scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions and an estimated 29% reduction in annual scope 3 emissions, largely due to discontinuing crude oil refining at the Houston Refinery site. LyondellBasell also produced and marketed about 206,000 metric tons of recycled and renewable-based polymers. Construction is ongoing for the MoReTec-1 commercial-scale catalytic chemical recycling facility in Germany — Wesseling, Germany, with a targeted startup in 2027. Peter Vanacker, CEO of LyondellBasell, emphasized the company's focus, discipline, and clear vision in achieving these sustainability goals.
