Bio-attributed wall panels

The new panels will be produced using Styrolution^® PS ECO 485N BC90, which contains 90 % bio-attributed feedstock, and Styrolution^® PS ECO 158N BC100, made from 100 % bio-attributed feedstock. Both polystyrene grades are made using renewable feedstock, based on a mass balance process certified under ISCC PLUS by a third party.

This collaboration highlights Orac's commitment to sustainability with the 2024 launch of its 100 % “bio-circular” Duropolymer^® panels. While Duropolymer^® has long been part of Orac’s product range, the company’s innovative approach now redefines its lifecycle. By combining bio-attributed feedstocks with recycled post-consumer and post-industrial waste, Orac achieves a fully bio-circular product. The ISCC PLUS certification for Orac’s bio-circular panels further underscores the integrity of its environmental efforts, setting a new benchmark for responsible decorative solutions.

“We are fully committed to leveraging our resources as a company to address climate change. Our goals of achieving carbon positivity by 2050 and ‘bio-circularity’ by 2045 are both ambitious and essential. These targets demand large-scale innovation, and our partnership with INEOS Styrolution is a major step in driving us toward these objectives”, says Miguel Knockaert, R&D Director at Orac.

With INEOS Styrolution’s high-performance sustainable materials, Orac is able to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly products while maintaining the design flexibility and quality for which they are known. This collaboration not only emphasises the environmental benefits of mass-balanced, bio-attributed materials but also reflects both companies' commitment to driving innovation in sustainable interior design.

“Orac’s selection of our sustainable bio-attributed materials for their 3D Duropolymer^® wall panels showcases our commitment to eco-friendly solutions. Made from renewable feedstocks and recycled materials, our ISCC-certified polystyrene grades support Orac’s sustainability goals. We look forward to further collaboration on additional sustainable options”, comments Ute Braunewell, Account Manager North & East Europe. AT
