Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) edge banding is a plastic edge banding produced from ABS resins, instead of PVC resins, which are more common.

In Europe, a large percentage of PVC edge banding is being replaced by ABS, PP and Polyester. Movement in this direction is starting to take hold in the US for the same reasons. It&#;s clear that ABS is more environmentally friendly than PVC. It&#;s also classified as a &#;greener&#; product.

ABS edge banding is being specified more and more by both architects and the design community. Companies in the healthcare market and organizations in school systems are two of the largest market segments moving towards ABS, and away from PVC.  Leading European retailers such as IKEA and H&M don&#;t allow PVC in their stores, including on displays or in store fixtures. Both of these retailers, along with a growing number of other companies with European headqaurters, are specifying the use of ABS on any projects being completed. Unlike PVC that produces toxic chemicals when incinerated, ABS only creates CO2, Water and Nitric Oxide during the incineration process.
