In Germany, NEOS Styrolution said it has successfully commercialized its 100% bio-attributed polystyrene, Styrolution PS 158K BC100.
As of early 2025, food trays using this bio-based material have been available on the shelves of the Japanese market through collaboration with a well-known retail franchise, the firm said.
Styrolution PS 158K BC100 uses an ISCC-certified mass balance approach and is made from 100% bio-attributed feedstock. As a result, it achieves a 172% reduction in carbon emissions when compared to traditional fossil-based polystyrene.
