Capacity utilization rate (-3 p.p.) impacted by the revision of production capacity conducted in 2017. Considering the same nominal capacity for both
years, the capacity utilization rate in 2017 would be 5 p.p. higher than in 2016. In the year, production in the United States and Europe grew 5%
Market: U.S. PP demand increased in relation to 2016 – food packaging and nonwoven industries. In Europe, the growth was driven by the
automotive industry
Sales: +5%, due to capacity expansion projects at the plants in the U.S. (late 2016) and Germany (early 2017) and by the firm PP demand in these
regions
