Basell Orlen Polyolefins Sp. z o.o. (BOP) is a Polish joint venture specializing in the production of polyolefins.

It was established in 2003 by Basell Europe Holdings B.V. and PKN ORLEN SA, both of which hold 50 percent of shares in BOP. BOP is the only Polish producer of polyolefins, and is the largest domestic producer of plastics.

In Płock, BOP has two world-class plants for the production of polypropylene and polyethylene. These state-of-the-art facilities are capable of producing 800 thousand tonnes of resins per year, including 480 thousand tons of polypropylene (PP), produced using the Spheripol technology and 320 thousand tonnes of high – density polyethylene (HDPE), produced using the Hostalen technology. Both technologies are licensed by a company from the LyondellBasell Group. 

In other words, the company’s combined production capacity is 900 thousand tonnes of polyolefins. The products are dispatched from BOP’s Logistic Platform, one of the largest and most advanced facilities of its kind in Europe.
