“With sustainability taking the driver’s seat in the industry, our focus has been on innovations, co-creations and projects that help our customers’ journey to meet their sustainability goals and green transformation cost-effectively,” said Andy Postlethwaite, Senior Vice President, Performance Materials Asia Pacific, BASF. “We are excited to showcase solutions that not only meet market demands but also push the boundaries of what’s possible in the plastics industry. CHINAPLAS 2025 is an opportunity to deepen our dialogue with industry leaders and accelerate the shift to sustainable practices. We’re also connecting with partners to co-create solutions that support a net-zero future and strengthen Asia’s role in the global circular economy.”
