BYCHEM — Materials engineered for tomorrow

BYCHEM in numbers

An integrated plant, not a trading desk.

Polyester polyols, plasticizers and TPU are produced on one campus, so a formulation change in the lab reaches the extruder without leaving the site.

Content note for launch: the R&D page currently states the laboratory area as both 3,300 m² and 3,500 m². All figures on this page should be confirmed by BYCHEM before go-live.

Product families

Three chemistries. One materials platform.

Hover a card to see how the material behaves — elasticity, plasticity and chain building are the three things BYCHEM sells.

TPU polymerisation line at the BYCHEM plant

Open item: Adhesives appears as a product line on the current About page but not in the product menu. It is left out of the three-family structure until BYCHEM decides whether it is a fourth family or an application of the polyol line.

Suggested grades—

R&D & innovation

From a customer requirement to a validated formulation.

Eight laboratories, customised formulation work, academic collaborations and a digital-twin approach to process optimisation.

Requirement

Application, processing window, regulation and cost target are captured with the customer's engineers.

Formulation

Backbone, hardness and additive package are designed against that target — not selected from a shelf.

Digital twin

Process parameters are simulated and optimised with AI-supported models before material is committed.

Pilot & test

Lab-scale samples run through mechanical, thermal and ageing tests in BYCHEM's own laboratories.

Scale-up

The validated recipe moves onto the production line with the same analytical control plan.

Inside the labs

Sustainability

Measured, not claimed.

Bio-based chemistry and closed-loop utilities, reported as numbers a customer's ESG team can use.

0%+

bio-based content in selected BYFLEXX® grades

0%

bio-based BYESTER® polyester polyol, commercially available

Process water is captured, treated and returned to the utility loop instead of being drawn fresh.

Waste-heat recovery

Heat from the reactors is recovered and reused across the campus, cutting the energy drawn per ton of product. Figures for the annual saving are being consolidated for the sustainability report.
