PCC plans to set up an Oxyalkylates production in the USA to further promote the expansion of the PCC Group’s core business areas in the important US market. A possible location is in Bay City, Matagorda County, Texas, on the Gulf of Mexico. On September 15, 2023, the project company PCC Chemicals Corporation signed a terminable lease agreement with the Port of Bay City for a property in the immediate vicinity of the port there. Although no decision has yet been made regarding the location of the planned investment, the contract with the port ensures that PCC Chemicals Corporation has the opportunity to intensively examine an investment at this location as part of due diligence.
