Innovative Solutions Drive Circular Economy in Agricultural Plastics market

Cleanfarms, McKenzie, and BASF have teamed up to revolutionize agricultural plastics with sustainable packaging. Unveiling at K Fair on October 13, this innovative package for BASF Liberty Herbicide is made from recycled agrochemical container plastics. Leveraging BASF's plastic additive, Cleanfarms' end-of-life packaging management, and McKenzie's rotomolding technology, it exemplifies a closed-loop circular economy. This initiative supports BASF's goal to double sales from Loop Solutions for the circular economy to €10 billion by 2030, while showcasing how BASF Plastic Additive Irgastab® enhances recycled resin properties for high-quality packaging.
