Trinseo<\/a>\u00a0(NYSE: TSE), a global materials company and manufacturer of plastics and latex binders, announces the launch of two sustainably-advantaged material grades dedicated to footwear and fashion. These new materials are aligned with\u00a0Trinseo\u2019s 2030 Sustainability Goals\u00a0<\/a>that 40% of its products will be sustainably advantaged.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trinseo developed two sustainable Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) families \u2013 the APILON\u2122 52 BIO TL and TNE, tailored for sustainable synthetic leather, produced respectively through coagulation, and extrusion – calendaring process. Containing up to 50% bio-based content, these materials provide luxury brands an alternative bio-textile to animal and synthetic leather, and they are suitable for applications such as footwear, as well as fashion apparel & accessories. Along with physical and mechanical properties similar to conventional alternatives made with PVC and PU, these bio-based grades also provide a soft touch resembling natural leather. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur TPU solutions for footwear and apparel have long been successful in meeting the highest standards of aesthetics, durability and, above all, sustainability. APILON\u2122 52 BIO TL and TNE series offer high-quality and sustainable solutions for footwear and apparel applications. As the footwear and apparel industry evolves, we are eager to be part of the movement toward a more sustainable future,” said Aldo Zanetti<\/strong>, Global Market Leader Footwear, Medical & Personal Care\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

These two series are designed in a response to market needs. These sustainable TPU are GMO-free and contain about 50% bio-based content. Trinseo\u2019s new sustainable materials provide a combination of sustainability, durability, softness, flexibility, and high quality, all the while maintaining an easy processability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
