In this episode of the LYB Podcast, host Deepi Sidhu speaks with Simon Foster, Industry Marketing Manager at LyondellBasell, about the North America launch of the Purell polymer portfolio.

Already trusted in Europe, the Purell portfolio includes medical-grade polyolefins designed for use in applications such as medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging. Simon shares how Purell supports industry needs for consistency, reliability and regulatory readiness — backed by the Purell Service Concept, which includes traceability systems, change notification policies and documentation aligned with global standards.

If you're working in healthcare manufacturing — or want to learn how LYB is enabling material innovation — this episode offers insights into a milestone launch that expands local access to proven solutions.
