Goal is to develop a new value chain for low-carbon, bio-based acrylic resins by leveraging proprietary technology.

Arkema and Catalyxx, an innovator in bio-based chemicals, announce a strategic partnership. This collaboration aims to develop a new value chain for low-carbon, bio-based acrylic resins by leveraging breakthrough proprietary technology.
Catalyxx is planning to build a first-of-its-kind industrial facility to produce bio-alcohols, including bio n-butanol, from bioethanol. These bio-alcohols, based on a patented technology have been validated at a demonstration plant in Seville, Spain and offer a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to fossil-based alternatives.
Arkema is evaluating the use of these bio-alcohols as feedstocks for the commercial-scale production of bio-based acrylic resins with lower carbon footprint. These resins will serve high-performance applications in coatings, adhesives for new energy solutions, e-mobility, living comfort, and sustainable infrastructure markets.
“This partnership is fully aligned with Arkema’s strategy and ambition to deliver ever more sustainable solutions to our customers,” says Richard Jenkins, SVP, Arkema Coating Solutions. “By working with Catalyxx, we strengthen our ability to reduce the carbon footprint of our materials and meet the growing demands of environmental regulations and green building certifications.”
“This project is a major milestone for Catalyxx, and we value the trust and shared vision we’ve built with Arkema over the past few years,” adds Joaquin Alarcón, founder and CEO of Catalyxx.
