On May 01, 2013, Toyo Engineering Korea Limited (Toyo-Korea, President and CEO Osanai Toru ) was
awarded a contract from Toyo Engineering Corporation (Toyo-Japan, President and CEO Katsumoto
Ishibashi) to provide Front End Engineering Design (FEED) services for a 450,000 t/y linear low density
polyethylene plant (LLDPE) as part of Sasol North America, Inc.¡¯s (Sasol) planned petrochemical complex to be established in the United States of America in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
Sasol is planning a world-scale ethane cracker with downstream derivatives at its Lake Charles site and
has selected the UNIPOL¢â PE Process of Univation Technologies, LLC for its new LLDPE plant.
Toyo-Japan and Toyo-Korea have vast experience in executing LLDPE projects. Following the recent
award of EPC services with Toyo-Japan for the Egyptian and Derivative Company¡¯s (Ethydco) project in
Alexandria, Egypt, this award added the 20th project to Toyo-Korea¡¯s UNIPOL¢â PE Process track record.
This award represents a strong foothold toward penetrating the US shale gas market and will expect to
acquire upcoming shale gas projects.
