Reinforced and self-extinguishing ABS
Versatility, strength, and safety in a single material
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a widely used polymer due to its excellent workability, impact resistance, and attractive appearance.
The reinforced and/or self-extinguishing versions offered by IonPlast combine the mechanical properties of standard ABS with additional functions, to meet specific needs in terms of rigidity, strength, or flame resistance.
Also available in WRAS certified versions for applications in contact with drinking water.
