Styralux™

Styralux™ is made from resin that is suitable for use in certain food contact applications, contact your local Westlake Plastics representative for specific regulatory declarations. Styralux is a high-impact, opaque material used to make components such as appliances, electronics, automobile parts, and toys. While our PS brand Styraclear is lightweight, clear, and brittle; Styralux benefits from rubber additives to make it more flexible and impact-resistant. Though it has an opaque appearance, it can be painted, labeled, and fabricated with ease.
