Braskem Inspire® 114 EU polypropylene impact copolymer is a propylene based resin very suitable for extrusion applications including blown films, sheets, profiles, pipes and blow molded containers. Inspire® 114 EU Performance Polymer has an excellent balance of high stiffness and impact resistance, even at low temperatures. Inspire® 114 EU Performance Polymer combines outstanding mechanical proper es with superior processability due to its high melt strength delivering improved sag properties compared to conventional polypropylenes.

All Braskem America production facilities are certified to produce bio, bio-circular, and circular polypropylene under the ISCC PLUS certification via the mass balance approach.
