SAN DIEGO, March 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ETHOS ASSET MANAGEMENT INC USA, announced a new long-term financing partnership with GreenGlycols® Green Glycols B.V., a 50/50 Joint Venture between ChemCom Dunaliella B.V. and GBE Europe B.V.

"We are very pleased to announce this impactful and sustainable project to produce Mono Propylene Glycol (MPG). MPG is a raw material with a wide range of applications such as functional liquids (antifreeze and aircraft de-icing), liquid detergents, cosmetics, medicines and foodstuffs. In the sustainable process of Green Glycols, traditional petrochemical raw materials for MPG are replaced by vegetable glycerine. This saves up to 280,000 tonnes of CO? per year compared to fossil MPG. The molecular structure of BioMPG is identical to that of fossil MPG, making it completely interchangeable. We were very impressed with Green Glycols, a dynamic and inspirational organization and the key personnel we worked with in making this deal happen, Pablo A. Otero, Director, GBE Europe and Leen van der Sluis, Director, Green Glycols whose vision, passion and commitment to this project was exceptional.
