What is the focus of your attention now?
- Biofuels, says Anders Lundin. We are Scandinavia’s largest producer of RME, or biodiesel, and we see an increasing demand for our product, and for biofuels in general. Our strategy is to dominate the Scandinavian RME-market. 


What does the future hold?
– We are also looking into other biofuels, for example bioethanol and biomethanol, both of which could be used as renewable raw materials in Perstorp’s chemical processes.

Brief facts 
RME – rape methyl ester - is produced out of rapeseed oil and methanol in Perstorp’s plant in Stenungsund. As a by-product from the process comes glycerin, that is sold on the chemical market. Today the plant produces 160 000 Mtons of RME yearly.
