PTT Global Chemical (GC) is shifting its portfolio from 80% commodity/20% specialty chemicals toward 70% commodity and 30% green/specialty by 2030. Key strategy: upgrading refineries to bio-refineries using waste cooking oil and other feedstocks, with plans to scale from 20,000 to 80,000 tonnes/year. Currently lacks local regulatory support for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), so is pivoting to polymers and aromatics for export partnerships (e.g. Mitsubishi to Japan). Internally, the company launched "GC StandOut" innovation platform attracting 1,000+ ideas annually to unlock employee-driven solutions. Q2 2026 results: net profit 12.2B baht, debt reduced by 116B baht over 2 years.
