Location

Eastman is building a second molecular recycling facility in Longview, Texas. We have been an active member of the Longview community for more than 70 years, currently employing over 1,500 team members at the location.

Our incredibly talented team members already working at the site will be instrumental in this project, and the area also has a strong talent pool. 

We chose the Longview site for its existing infrastructure and operations and energy supply and footprint. The location also offers access to western and central U.S. feedstock. The facility will have the capacity to recycle approximately 110,000 metric tons of hard-to-recycle plastic waste.

With PepsiCo as an early adopter committed to significant offtake from the plant.

Feedstock
opportunities

The project location allows multiple access points to feedstock. It is located within approximately 300 miles of 4 of the 11 most populated cities in the country and several U.S. material recovery facilities (MRFs).
