A leading European automotive brand has selected INEOS Styrolution’s Luran S SPF60 for the blackening panel of the company’s line of trucks. The selection was made due to the product’s superior surface quality in combination with its weather resistance.

Laura Nübling, Product Manager Luran S, EMEA says: “Luran S XA SPF60 was developed for demanding outdoor applications that require superior UV resistance and high gloss surfaces. When we developed the product, we had deep black automotive applications for automotive components like exterior trims, rear-view mirrors, and dual design front grilles. I am very excited to see our Luran S SPF60 material cruising down the road.”

Luran S is an ASA polymer featuring high surface quality, good impact strength and enhanced colour fastness. Luran S products deliver superior long-term performance when exposed to UV irradiation and heat. They also provide excellent chemical resistance.
