The medical market is a demanding market. When it comes to people's health, there can be no compromise. The manufacturers of medical applications therefore have to deal with very stringent state directives and very high development costs. BASF offers different plastics for the special requirements of the medical industry.

Here you will find customized material, processing, and design solutions for your needs. We will help you custom-design your products and distinguish yourself from others – with innovative solutions as varied as your customers.

We want to help you find innovative, sustainable solutions to problems facing equipment and machinery manufacturers today.

BASF engineering plastics offer decisive advantages over established metal structures in many areas. The range of applications for these intelligent plastic solutions extends far beyond automotive engineering and opens up significant development potential for the solar, construction and water industry.

With the design study Concept 1865, we obviously do not re-invent the bicycle. The e-bike is rather a thought experiment that illustrates the extraordinary applications of modern plastics.

At this stage, we are using more than our planet can regenerate. Therefore sustainable development is crucial for our future. We want to proactively co-create the future of our planet and are constantly involved in research to further develop our products.

When it comes to parts for the sanitary and water industries, it is not only technical properties that play a crucial role but it is above all health and safety. Under the name Aqua^®, BASF offers a comprehensive range of engineering plastics optimized specifically for components in contact with drinking water and food.

We offer our customers a comprehensive range of services with leading technologies and products. In our laboratories we execute plastic-related tests for various applications.

The Laboratory for materials testing is responsible for the execution and the assessment of a large number of plastics-related tests. Our main task is to satisfy the demand of internal customers for testing and consulting. Due to our accreditation according to ISO 17025, we can offer our services also to external customers.

We work on complex technical challenges in the field of plastics development and application. For this, a variety of test equipment as well as facilities for different joining technologies are available. We provide technical support for development and sales for all BASF sites and for customers worldwide.

With our calculation tools, information databases and FAQ we aim at helping you in answering technical questions related to our portfolio of performance polymers.

Many BASF plastics can be self-colored easily and economically during processing. This leads to advantages for you in purchasing, production, logistics and marketing.

The demands on the quality of injection-molded components made from engineering thermoplastics have become ever more stringent in the past few years. This is due to the higher quality awareness among end consumers. In addition, technically sophisticated moldings are becoming more of a requirement in today’s projects.
