...ise combined with extensive collaboration with leading-edge technology companies, with Ineos Group, and with the styrenics value chain. With the Terluran ECO GP-22, the company brings its first mechanically recycled ABS products to market. The two new grades Terluran ECO GP-22 MR50 and Terluran ECO GP-22 MR70 contain 50 and 70 % of recycled post-consumer waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), respectively. Both grades are available in black. The recycled material matches the mechanica...
