The company serves customers in over 70 countries and maintains long-term supply contracts to ensure stable demand.

The company operates through the following segments: Brazil Segment, United States and Europe Segment, and Mexico Segment.

• Brazil Segment includes the production and sale of chemicals, olefins, specialties, polyolefins, and vinyls. It operates four petrochemical complexes in Brazil and uses naphtha, ethane, propane, refinery off gas, and ethanol as feedstock.

Braskem holds a leading position in the plastics industry as the largest producer in the Americas and a global leader in PE I’m green™ bio-based production. The company benefits from its integrated operations in Brazil and Mexico, access to renewable feedstocks such as sugarcane ethanol, and a diversified raw material base. Competitive advantages include world-scale plants, proximity to customer demand, long-term customer relationships, and a strong focus on innovation and sustainability. The company faces competition from major international petrochemical companies in olefins, polyolefins, and vinyls markets, particularly in regions where gas-based crackers have cost advantages.

Braskem serves a diverse customer base including third-generation petrochemical producers that manufacture plastic-based consumer and industrial goods such as packaging, bottles, automotive parts, and household appliances. The company has 2,839 customers worldwide as of December 31, 2025, with specific customer relationships in the PE I’m green™ bio-based product line, which has around 217 customers in 41 countries.
