Summer is more than a season — it’s a feeling, a movement, a moment in motion. Before the car is packed, the RV hits the road or the first tee shot is played; LYB materials are already making summer moments possible.
LYB is proud to support the escapes, the swings and the memories made under the sun— because when performance matters, our materials can help bring these moments to life. Discover how LYB materials can turn everyday escapes and summer swings into unforgettable experiences.
Backing summer getaways with innovation
From sun to shore, our materials can power protection, storage and transportation — supporting summer recreation by withstanding impact, UV rays and wet conditions.
Water & boating: High-impact molded watercrafts such as kayaks, jet skis and boats need components designed for stability, flotation and durability.
Supporting materials/portfolios:
- Icorene 1480 – new generation hexene high-density polyethylene suitable for long-term outdoor applications like kayaks and paddle boards
- Engineered Polymers – various polyolefin and styrenic compounds to support sun exposure and water adventures such as jet skiing
- Styrene and propylene glycol– common materials used in constructing fiberglass-reinforced plastic boats and composite boat hulls
Transportation: Fuel systems, vehicle liftgates, tailgates and camper parts require lightweight, durable materials built to perform on the road.
Supporting materials/portfolios:
- Oxyfuels and alcohols – added to gasoline and fuels for efficient and cleaner combustion
- Engineered composites & polymers and polypropylene compounds – offer a broad range of thermoset and thermoplastic resins for lightweight interior parts such as facia, under-the-hood components like bumpers and insulation systems
Packaging and personal care ingredients: Components for food storage, coolers and personal care products such as chip bags and sunscreen need to be designed for quality, freshness and functionality.
Supporting materials/portfolios:
- Masterbatches for caps and closures – including offerings that help promotecircularity for various end-uses, such as cosmetics, food and beverages
- HDPE for packaging films – offer moisture barriers and improve product shelflife.
- Mono-material solutions for PP and PE for flexible packaging – limit spillageand food contamination
- Petrothene rotomolding resins & Icorene powders – incorporate intorotomolding applications such as insulated coolers and ice chests
- Circulen grade materials – offer sustainable solutions for commonapplications like squeeze water bottles, beverage cups and food containers
Driving performance in every summer match
From high-performance grips to durable paddles and course-ready gear, our materials can enhance precision, comfort and play — supporting every match and swing with innovation.
Sporting equipment: Court tiles, clubheads, grips and golf cart panels require smooth, durable and traction-enhancing materials.
Supporting materials/portfolios:
- Pro-fax SG702 resin – reinforce high-impact polypropylene with UV-stabilized resins to support court tiles, fast footwork, reduce impact andimprove durability
- Custom performance colors – provide custom color into racket grips usingour CirculenRecover grade materials
- Engineered composites and polymers – support club heads and grips withdesign flexibility, strength and precision
- Polypropylene and engineered polymers compounds – promotelightweighting and strength in golf cart components
Everyday solutions
Whether escaping into the outdoors or stepping up to the tee, the right materials make every summer moment possible. From coolers and RVs to clubheads and turf tools, LYB innovations can deliver comfort, protection and performance — supporting the adventures and games that define the season.
