improved thermal insulation values thanks to their geometry. This minimises both air conditioning costs and energy consumption, making them suitable for greenhouses in extreme climate zones.
Recycled PS for food Trinseo has developed a transparent, dissolution- recycled polystyrene (rPS) for the European market, which is specifically designed for direct food contact applications.
It allows the company to sell food-contact-ap-

The company also showcased its multi UV polycarbonate twin- and five-wall sheets with X-geometry at Growtech Antalya in November 2024. The sheet material is available in different thicknesses in opal white and clear transparent. Thanks to their high light transmission, the
sheets are ideal for increasing greenhouse yields. They provide reliable protection and ensure that the plants are supplied with optimum light. The structure of the five-wall sheets enables
proved rPS that complies with the EU Regulation 2022/1616, which governs the use of recycled plastic materials intended to come into direct contact with food. This required rigorous preparation, said Trinseo, which worked with the Fraunhofer Institute to prepare an ‘EFSA Novel Technology Dossier’ to demonstrate the decontamination efficiency of its dissolution installation and to validate the food- contact safety of the finished product. Trinseo proved the decontamination efficiency of its proprietary technology through a ‘challenge test’, where contaminants were added to the feedstock
