At Chinaplas 2023, BASF presents co-creations demonstrating its efforts in improving how plastics are made and developing material solutions that increase energy efficiency, extend product shelf life, and enable more sustainable applications in infrastructures for eMobility and renewable energy. 

BASF launches Tinuvin^® NOR^® 211 AR to support film producers and converters globally in navigating the challenging landscape of plasticulture – the use of plastic materials in agricultural applications. This new high-performance heat and light stabilizer protects and prolongs the lifespan of agricultural plastics that require resistance to high levels of inorganic chemicals like sulfur and chlorine. Tinuvin NOR 211 AR offers an effective value-in-use solution for agricultural plastics exposed to intense UV radiation, thermal stress, and inorganic chemicals commonly used in crop management and disinfection.

BASF achieves ISCC+ certification across all its global major production sites for Acrylics, Alcohols, Glycol Ethers and Acetates, taking an important step to support customers fulfilling their targets and ambitions. With this step, BASF is now able to produce more than 60 products related to this portfolio with one or more sustainability attributes.
