7 Outline Borouge, investing in the future Asia, a changing world Sustainable innovation 7

8 Asia is changing Economy Environment Society 8

9 Economy! Re-balancing imports/exports! Growing domestic demand and consumption! Increased disposable income! Expanding local companies! Stronger currencies! Rural development! Increasing product standards 9

10 Environment! Smog and air pollution! High CO 2 emissions! Food protection and security! Surface water pollution! Water scarcity! Waste handling 10

11 Society! Rising middle class! Uplift of living standards! Rapid urbanization! Aging / young population! Increasing labour shortage / excess 11

12 Outline Investing in the future Asia, a changing world Sustainable innovation 12

13 Opportunities for polyolefin industries! Light weight automotive solutions! Efficient energy transport (gas, oil, electricity)! Food production and protection! Irrigation systems for food production! Hygiene and health protection 13

14 Light weight automotive solutions Volkswagen Golf 7 Economy! Collaboration with OEMs and Tier One suppliers for launch of Golf A7! Light weight plastics for IP carriers, door claddings and bumpers Environment! IP carriers reduced weight by 0.5kg per car! Less weight means less fuel consumption resulting in less CO 2 emissions! Every 10kg weight reduction means 190kg less CO 2 emission Society! Uplift living standard 14

15 Efficient energy transmission HVDC project in southern China Economy! 160kV XLPE HVDC cable pilot project successfully commissioned in southern China! Connecting the Nan ao windmill plant with Guangzhou power grid Environment! Reduced energy loss versus AC cable solution in long distance power transmission! Increased grid stability by addressing the issues of power fluctuations caused by wind speed variations! No oil leakage risk compared to oil filled cables Society! Support rapid urbanisation! Uplift living standard 15

16 Food production and protection Borstar PE greenhouse film Economy! Collaboration with farmers in Asia and UAE! Light transformed to diffused light with Borstar film! Improved crop yield 8-11% and crop quality (sweeter strawberries)! Improved speed to harvest, up to 25% seen Environment! Long lifetime of greenhouses! More crop production per area farm land decreasing fertilizer and scarce resources like water Society! Better food quality! Increased food availability 16

17 Aquility drip irrigation systems Sugar cane plantation in Solapur, India 17 Economy! Sugar cane is an important crop in India with 60 million farmers! Aquility PE replaces the need to mix lower quality raw materials for pipes! Pipe production costs reduced by 8% through higher extrusion speeds! Planting acreage increased by 250% and yield by 50% farmer recovered cost of irrigation system in 6 months Environment! Avoided premature cracks on pipes due to poor quality raw materials! Improves product quality increasing the acceptance of drip systems Society! Increase productivity of farms

18 Hygiene and Health protection Sterilisable PP Blow Fill Seal IV bottles Economy! Enables a significant reduction of sterilisation time compared to polyethylene materials! Able to withstand 121 C sterilisation temperature, achieving Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) Environment! Clarity and self collapsibility behaviour similar to LDPE! Meets China SFDA regulation Society! Hygiene and health protection solutions for aging/young population 18

19 Thank you! Respect Exceed Create Focus 19
