OCI Global to deliver bio-ammonia to Röhm, reducing the carbon footprint of essential products that rely on MMA, such as cars, airplane windows, and dental products. This partnership supports wider industrial decarbonization efforts. The delivery highlights the importance of the hydrogen corridor from the Port of Rotterdam, with King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands meeting with Röhm representatives to kick off the project. OCI Global is the exclusive producer of ISCC PLUS certified bio-ammonia, achieving over a 70% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional production.

Ahmed El-Hoshy, CEO, OCI Global commented, “This delivery of our bio-ammonia shows our pivotal role in developing the hydrogen corridor to enable the supply of lower carbon ammonia across Europe, from the Port of Rotterdam. Through partnerships with other industry leaders like Röhm, we’re able to continue to make first-moves and prove the case for lower carbon products in existing value chains, and we’re excited about the opportunity we have ahead of us to work with other industrial customers to do this."

Hans-Peter Hauck, COO at Röhm said, “Ammonia is a central feedstock for the manufacture of these methacrylic products such as Plexiglas, Degalan and Degaroute roadmarkings. We therefore are excited to join this partnership and take a significant step towards the decarbonization of our processes and products. A low carbon alternative of ammonia made from biogas allows us to manufacture in our ISCC PLUS certified plants Methacrylate based monomers, molding compounds and resins, in order to deliver sustainable products and solutions for our customers in the industries we serve."

OCI and Röhm, both champions of sustainability, are making waves in their industries. OCI Global's recent bio-ammonia supply to the food and drinks sector supports lower carbon production, while the company prepares for increased demand by tripling capacity at its Rotterdam terminal. Röhm is advancing with LiMA technology in Texas for lower carbon methacrylate monomers and introducing an eco-friendly "pro Terra" product range based on recycled materials.
