Qenos is the sole manufacturer of polyethylene and polymers within
Australia. If you see or use plastic in your household items, it was
probably made by us.
We directly contribute more than $1 billion
a year to the Australian economy with our operations in Melbourne and
Sydney employing around 700 people directly. We are a valued supplier
of a diverse range of specialty polymers to industries that employ
hundreds of thousands of people across Australia.
It is the
specialty polymers that we produce which are the essential and
indispensable inputs to our local industries such as food and beverage,
construction, mining and energy, agriculture and water conservation,
plus many more.
These industries deliver products Australians
rely on every day, thanks to the ingenious transformation of naturally
occurring resources by the team of engineers and scientists at Qenos.
We
multiply the value of Australia’s Bass Strait and Cooper Basin gas
fields by sustainably harnessing ethane and liquid petroleum gas for
local conversion. Then, using advanced technologies at our world-class
production facilities in Melbourne and Sydney, these gases are expertly
transformed into safe, clean polyethylene.
Our mission is to
transform our natural resources into life’s essentials and drive growth
in Australian manufacturing to keep our jobs local. Backed by global
giant, Bluestar, we’re one of the largest supply chains in Australia,
and we’re excited by the opportunities and challenges ahead of us.
