INEOS Styrolution receives recycled styrene monomer from Indaver

This is the first commercial-scale delivery of recycled SM in Europe. It enables the production of high-quality polystyrene and other styrenics, including for food-grade, transparent, and medical applications.

This recycled feedstock adds to INEOS Styrolution’s sustainable styrenics portfolio, which already comprises mechanically recycled and bio-attributed grades, and demonstrates the company’s ability to deploy multiple recycling technologies for different waste streams.

“We are pleased that we can now offer styrenics from depolymerisation at market scale,” commented Rob Buntinx, President EMEA, INEOS Styrolution. “This gives our customers more sustainable options to lower their environmental footprint without compromising product quality or performance.”

“With Plastics2Chemicals (P2C), Indaver is developing the circular economy and advanced chemical recycling. By converting hard-to-recycle plastics into virgin-quality feedstock such as styrene, we are closing the loop and offering a sustainable alternative to fossil resources,” added Erik Moerman, Sales and Development Director P2C. “Our in-house developed technology, combined with strategic partnerships and innovation, enables us to deliver high-purity materials for demanding applications like food packaging – proving that circularity and performance can go hand in hand.”
