INEOS Styrolution, the global leader in styrenics, has today announced that its ASA[1] polymer Luran® S product has been selected by INEOS Automotive as the material of choice for the front grille of its upcoming Grenadier 4X4.

INEOS Automotive was established to meet demand for a rugged and uncompromising off-roader, designed to conquer the world’s harshest environments. The INEOS Grenadier, which is on track to begin series production in Autumn, is designed to be a capable, durable and reliable working tool, while also offering the comfort, refinement and reliability expected of a modern vehicle.

Donna Falconer, Head of Product at INEOS Automotive says: “We have the highest expectations of the materials we use for the Grenadier. Luran S fulfills them all. Not only does it deliver superior performance in the harshest of environments, it also enables a high quality finish and appearance.”

Christophe Ginss, Sales Director Automotive Styrenic Specialties EMEA at INEOS Styrolution comments: “We are very excited to be part of the journey the INEOS Group has embarked on. Like our colleagues at INEOS Automotive, we focus on delivering products with an uncompromising quality.”
