Borealis in the United States

Borealis Compounds Inc. has been providing specifically designed and compounded polyolefins and technical support to its customers in North and South America since 1994.

This facility also produces and exports products to the Asia-Pacific, Middle Eastern, European and African markets. These markets are covered by Borealis and the Borouge sales network.

Borealis' facilitiy is located in Port Murray, New Jersey, on a regional rail line and within close proximity to all major transportation hubs. This ensures an efficient flow of raw materials to the facility and subsequent delivery of the finished products to our customers.

This stand-alone compounding facility, dedicated to Wire and Cable production is specializing in medium and high voltage insulations, semi-conductive and automotive cable grades.

Resources too valuable to waste

In the past years, investments and upgrade projects have transformed the infrastructure into one that is safer and more environmentally sound. In addition to adding additional capacity, Borealis saw a need to enhance and continue to update our mechanical systems. Two of recent projects focused on the potential loss of energy.

Are you aware that in a typical production facility, an estimated 40% of air usage is lost through leaks? Following the recommendations of a recent study, Borealis has eliminated many of these air leaks and has modified our compressor cycling, thus increasing reliability. 
 
The radiant heating system was also upgraded. Steam will remain necessary in some areas, but by using smaller, more reliable and efficient boilers, a reductions of gas, electricity and water consumption has been achieved. 

Borealis’ focus is on developing innovative solutions that add value to customers products. Furthermore, we are aware of our environmental and corporate responsibility to the community at large. Our role as a good citizen is paramount in this relationship.
