Nova Chemicals delays startup of new polyethylene facility to early 2023

Nova Chemicals' new polyethylene manufacturing site on Rokeby Line near Corunna, Ontario, is now expected to start up in early 2023, delayed from late 2022 due to COVID-19 and labor market impacts. The $2.5 billion expansion includes a new facility with capacity of about one billion pounds of polyethylene per year and a 50% boost in ethylene capacity at the existing Corunna site, creating 150 permanent jobs.
