Ineos Styrolution has introduced the company’s first sustainable acrylonitrile styrene acrylate (ASA) grade. Ineos Styrolution’s Luran S material is now also available as Luran S ECO with up to 50% bio-attributed content.

Luran S is a family of products for demanding outdoor applications. Its UV resistance makes it the material of choice for a range of applications in the construction industry and exterior applications in automotive. Luran S is also selected for a range of applications in the toys, sports, and leisure industry.

The longevity resulting from its UV resistance can in itself be considered a first step toward being a sustainable product. True sustainability is now coming with the material being based on bio-attributed content.

Third-party life cycle assessments (LCAs) indicate that the new Luran S ECO B products will offer up to a 58% carbon footprint reduction when compared to respective fossil-based products, depending on the selected Luran S grade.

The bio-attribution process is certified by ISCC PLUS. Production of Luran S ECO B is at Ineos Styrolution’s plant in Ludwigshafen, Germany.

Marcela Villegas, Director Commercial Product Management EMEA, said: “Our Luran S ECO B products are to my knowledge the first bio-attributed ASA materials in the market. We are excited that these products will help us and our customers to meet our respective sustainability targets.”
