ASA

Acrylonitrile styrene acrylate

ASA is ABS with an acrylic rubber phase, which lets it stay outdoors for years without fading or yellowing. Surface quality, impact toughness and paintability match ABS. It is the material for exterior profiles, vehicle exterior trim and garden products used without paint.
