The purpose of building the plant was to quadruple production capacity for anionic surfactants. Today PCC Exol SA operates two ethoxylation and two sulfonation plants at its Polish sites in Brzeg Dolny and Płock. The total capacity of this chemicals plant amounts to 60,000 metric tons of non-ionic surfactants (ethoxylates) and 40,000 metric tons of anionic surfactants (sulfonates) per year.
