A. Schulman Inc. was a supplier of plastic compounding products, color concentrates, and additives. The company was founded in 1928 by Alex Schulman and was based in Fairlawn, Ohio. It offered a wide range of products including low and high-density polyethylenes, polystyrene, polypropylene, and various other polymers.

In 2018, LyondellBasell acquired A. Schulman Inc. The acquisition more than doubled LyondellBasell’s existing compounding business and broadened the company’s reach into growing markets such as automotive, construction materials, electronic goods and packaging.

The combined business operates as Advanced Polymer Solutions and includes LyondellBasell’s existing polypropylene compounding assets and the A. Schulman assets. It also includes several materials previously manufactured by A. Schulman that are new to LyondellBasell’s product portfolio including engineered composites, powders and masterbatches.
