  • Exclusivity agreement applies to using Luran SC in leading edge protection (LEP) applications.

Frankfurt and Edinburgh, June 24, 2024 - INEOS Styrolution has announced today that the Scottish wind energy specialist Edge Solutions has signed a ten-year exclusive supply agreement for an ultra-tough Luran® SC thermoplastic product, designed specifically for wind turbine blades.

Edge Solutions, based in Edinburgh has developed a patented system, called Armour Edge, which repairs and protects the leading edge of wind turbine blades from erosion – a significant issue for operational onshore and offshore windfarms. Their product is a custom-fitted modular shield which uses a bespoke version of an ultra-tough Luran® SC thermoplastic product, designed specifically for wind turbine blades.

These two companies have been working in tandem for many years[1] and the new exclusivity agreement extends Edge Solutions’ sole global rights to use Luran SC in leading edge protection (LEP) applications for the next decade, and on a rolling annual basis thereafter.


“This agreement cements our position as a significant player in the LEP market and underlines the strength of our long-term partnership with INEOS Styrolution,” says Edge Solutions’ Managing Director David Urch.

“Edge Solutions was launched commercially in 2020. We now have a growing Armour Edge order book worldwide, with repeat orders from early customers, including RWE, and the German offshore wind farm Riffgat, with a number of our clients now looking to increase the amount of coverage per blade. We are delighted to continue our successful collaboration with INEOS Styrolution, and we look forward to announcing more significant customer orders in the months ahead,” Urch concludes.


Andreas Kolf, Business Development Manager at INEOS Styrolution adds: “We are very excited to work with the very motivated and ambitious team at Edge Solutions. The fact that our material contributes to the production of renewable energy adds a new facet to our own commitment to sustainability.”
