It is easy to think of a refining company in terms of its ability to produce gasoline and diesel fuel. However, MPC also produces a number of other products which are common ingredients in a variety of household items that people rely on every day. From the propylene used in plastic bottles and polymer carpeting to the cumene used in appliances and CDs to the off-gas used in making PVC pipes, specialty products are essential ingredients in our 21st century way of life.
