Why innovators choose Cellasto® for elevator applications

BASF is your experienced partner in the elevator industry, providing custom-designed and safety-certified components crafted with the outstanding versatility of Cellasto®. Count on BASF’s team of global experts to help you engineer designs that meet your specifications for NVH, safety and performance. 

Elevator overrun buffer

Thanks to advanced formulations of Cellasto® HD, your elevator overrun buffers will have the significantly improved ability to absorb energy. Maintain the same load range with a smaller buffer diameter or gain wider load range with keeping the diameter. Request a customized Cellasto® solution for country-specific standards.
