SABIC is dedicated to polymer foaming technology, adding polyolefin products (such as POP elastomers and POP plastomers) and thermoplastic engineering plastics (such as LEXAN polycarbonate, modified PPE (NORYL ™) and PEI (ULTEM ™)

SABIC believes that advanced polymer foaming technologies are critical to improving the sustainability and efficiency of global manufacturing and supply chains. SABIC is committed to improving the above advantages by strengthening the physical properties and foamability of polymer materials.

At present, the polymer foaming material manufacturing industry consumes about 25 million tons of plastic annually, and it is expected to continue to grow at a rate of 2.5% per year in the next ten years. The main growth areas include construction and construction, packaging, transportation and furniture. Composite foaming materials, while saving materials and energy, ensure that the products have the same or even better performance, and provide a series of advantages such as heat insulation, sound insulation, cushioning and protection.

SABIC has identified “foaming and lightweight technology” as one of its key development areas, and its many polymer solutions can improve the efficiency, sustainability and profitability of the entire value chain. SABIC has more than 35 years of experience in the field of foaming technology and has a large market share in the foamed polyolefin market. Its foam grade products have been launched in the European and Saudi Arabian markets. In addition, SABIC's plant in Saudi Arabia provides polystyrene foaming solutions to the Middle East and African markets.

Currently, SABIC is expanding its product portfolio to include other polyolefin products (such as POP elastomers and POP plastomers) and thermoplastic engineering plastics (such as LEXAN polycarbonate, modified PPE (NORYL ™) and PEI (ULTEM ™)).

Many breakthrough innovative products have entered the commercialization stage. For example, SABIC® LDPE 2502X0 brings unique advantages to the physical foam extrusion process. Its lightweight foam materials are widely used. SABIC® LDPE 2402CX0 also brings advantages to the extrusion process of crosslinked (XL) foamed materials. Cross-linked foamed materials have also improved in performance-to-weight ratios and can be used for higher value-added applications.

In addition, SABIC's foam innovation center in the Netherlands also has a number of innovative projects in the field of polymer foam in the development process. This newly established innovation center is equipped with comprehensive foaming technology and analysis equipment for the development of new foaming solutions, technological innovation projects and joint projects with customers. It aims to reduce the environmental impact of materials, save energy and production costs To reduce time to market.

Inside the "Home of Innovation" in Saudi Arabia, SABIC showcases a wide range of products made from its polymers and foam materials. The company will continue to devote itself to the research and development of new technologies and explore more optimized and environmentally friendly energy-saving applications.
