Logistic Operator Preparation in the Netherlands

LyondellBasell is a leader in the global chemical industry, creating solutions for the everyday sustainable life that our site in Geleen is a part of. Geleen site is a dynamic organization, founded in 2014 by 3 entrepreneurs with a conviction to do things differently when it comes to recycling: the large-scale replacement of polymers produced from oil or gas. They saw a wonderful opportunity to sustainably process plastic waste by developing the same quality as classic polymers.
Today, our plant is a thriving organization of +/- 70 employees. Sustainability and responsible entrepreneurship are central to this. For instance, the site is OCS (Operation Clean Sweep) certified. This means that we try to prevent the wasting/leakage of plastics as much as possible and clean up as quickly as possible to prevent them from entering nature.
