Comfort, Health and Safety

Are you looking for an adhesive raw material for medical-technical applications or for a plasticizer for food packaging? We provide the appropriate solution for every need. Select a product from the below selection to find out more.

Cost Effectiveness

Plastics offer numerous advantages compared to other materials: With versatile application options they allow for great freedom of design and are also more cost-efficient than alternative materials. With our tools and many years of experience, excess materials and rejects have become a thing of the past.

Energy Efficiency

Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Therefore it is even more important to conserve the available resources. We support you on your journey to more energy efficiency – from the production to the application.

Food contact

The Elastollan® FC portfolio has been specially developed for use in food contact applications and is often used in the food industry or drinking water applications.

Das Besondere an den Materialien der BASF sind zum einen ihre herrausragenden Eigenschaften und zum anderen die Produktideen, die sie ermöglichen. Diese werden in der sogenannten „Wunderkammer“ präsentiert, einem Trichter, dessen Wände die Augen abschirmen und den Betrachter so jede räumliche Orientierung verlieren lassen. Die perspektivische Verzerrung lässt sowohl Objekte als auch Besucher in einer verblüffenden Collage verschmelzen. Ein Spiel mit der Wahrnehmung – genauso charmant und analog, wie es 1865, im Entstehungsjahr der BASF, noch gang und gäbe war.

What makes BASF materials special is both their excellent properties and the product ideas they enable. These products are presented in the so-called “Wunderkammer”, or “cabinet of wonders” – a funnel, whose walls block off the peripheral view to suspend spatial orientation. The perspective distortion merges objects and visitors moving amongst them into an astonishing collage. Playing with perception – in just the same charming, analogue way as was so popular in 1865, the year in which BASF was founded.
