New Delhi, India – March 17, 2023 – At PU TECH 2023, BASF demonstrates how it is accelerating innovations for the green journey with various polyurethane solutions to enable greater sustainability in the automotive, consumer, construction, and industrial sectors.

“We are enabling a more sustainable future by collaborating with our customers on innovative solutions based on bio-based or recycled materials, or optimizing production processes,” said Krithikumar Seetharaman, Director of Business Management, Performance Materials India.

For example, at PU Tech 2023, we will showcase how bio-based Elastollan® thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) can be used for the insole and sole for sustainable footwear, without compromising performance and functionality.

BASF will also showcase solutions for infrastructure, such as PU insulation panels, and sports flooring.

On the road to sustainable mobility, BASF’s advanced and lightweight material solutions in the automotive battery and charging system, for example, are improving energy efficiency and extending product shelf-life. Elastoskin®, an aromatic polyurethane (PU) sprayed skin in the car seat, trunk floor, and steering wheel can provide a high-quality appearance and exquisite feel with low emission and low odor.

A series of tech talks at the BASF booth has also been organized to provide an overview of the latest products and applications. For more information on the tech talks, click here.
