Houston — Corpus Christi Polymers‘ (CCP) new petroleum derivatives processing and manufacturing plant in Texas will become the largest in the U.S. and in the world once it’s fully operational, producing 1.1 million tons of polyethilene terephthalate (PET) and another 1.3 million tons of purified terephthalic acid (PTA) materials.
Sarens, world leader in heavy lifting, engineered transport and crane rental, will have a crucial role as a supplier of the cranes required for this work.
During this job, which will begin in January 2023 and last approximately 18 months, Sarens will also offer various transport services on site.
This new plant will represent an important step forward for the region’s economy, which will see the creation of more than 2,500 direct jobs during the 18-month construction period, in addition to another 250 once the plant is fully operational in 2025.
CCP’s new factory will also help to reduce U.S. PET imports from abroad, which totaled 2.25 million tons in the first five months of the year according to the US International Trade Commission.
