斯泰隆, the global materials company and manufacturer of plastics, latex and rubber, announced today that it will be doubling its Solution Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SSBR) production capacity of one train, after reaching an agreement with material supplier JSR, to acquire its current production capacity rights at Styron’s world-scale rubber production hub in Schkopau, Germany.
SSBR用于生产具有较低滚动电阻的高性能轮胎和绿色轮胎。
Styron的Schkopau生产网站目前拥有八辆世界规模的橡胶火车，可在全球范围内提供轮胎客户。在本协议达成之前，JSR拥有施托隆在Schkopau的三列SSBR生产火车中的50％的能力。结果，从2014年4月1日起，Styron将拥有这列火车的全部容量权利，从而使其能够提高其为全球轮胎市场服务的能力。作为Schkopau橡胶综合大楼的所有者，Styron具有独特的位置，可以利用这一扩展机会，这与其橡胶业务增长策略非常一致，并且是满足客户需求不断增长的成本效益的解决方案。
“该协议使我们能够以非常经济和及时的方式进一步发展橡胶业务。这项投资以我们在2012年上线的Schkopau的第三次SSBR火车的成功为基础。Styron不断投资于研发和生产能力，以确保客户成功。斯泰隆。
“We are a clear technology leader in functionalized SSBR, continually putting forward breakthrough products that allow our tire customers to meet their goals. With this additional capacity we will be able to react faster to our customer’s needs, and at the same time the production line can be leveraged to produce our next generation grades,” says Francesca Reverberi, Business Director for Rubber, Styron.
在当今的市场中，轮胎生产商需要开发具有长寿，储蓄和安全技术的可持续产品。SSBR是针对低滚动阻力的轮胎的关键促进技术，并在胎面中结合出色的湿握和耐磨性。
