SHANGHAI, June 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
INEOS Styrolution, the global leader in styrenics and leading styrenic solution provider in the household industry, has been selected by Haier as the ABS supplier for fridge liners in its new range of refrigerators launched in June 2016. Haier, the world leading brand in household appliances, had identified INEOS Styrolution's Novodur® 595CP (Liner ABS) as the material of choice for its new fridge liners application. Novodur 595CP's high ESCR property is a critical characteristic contributing to more than 25% reduction in fridge liner cracking, resulting in higher cost savings for Haier.
In March 2017, INEOS Styrolution was awarded the prestigious 2017 Haier Golden Cube Award* at its annual Global Supplier Conference in Shanghai, in recognition of INEOS Styrolution's innovation capabilities in the fridge liner application, as well as our collaborative partnership approach with Haier.
