Cargill has broken ground on a $22-million BiOH™ brand polyols manufacturing plant in Chicago. The new production facility will be the first world-scale biobased polyols plant. Expected to be operational before the end of the year, the new plant will produce Cargill’s BiOH soybean-based polyols – an ingredient that replaces petroleum-based chemicals traditionally used in polyurethane products, such as flexible foam cushioning for furniture, bedding and automotive products.
