NOVA Chemicals develops and manufactures chemicals and plastic resins that make everyday life healthier and safer.

Joining the Cyclyx consortium provides us with greater supply reliability, accelerating our ability to meet the demands of consumers for high-quality products made with post-consumer resin,” stated Greg DeKunder, VP Polyethylene Marketing and Circular Economy.
