Development engineers Rie Kaneko and Torsten Hensel discuss the structure of the lightweight comfort seat using a cross-section model. By means of the e-textile technology used, the seat heating can be directly embedded in the textile and is thus close to the body. Elastoflex® flexible foams in the sitting areas save up to 20 percent weight and at the same time provide ergonomic advantages by means of various hardness zones. Print free of charge.

Self-Coloring of BASF Plastics

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

Even our most exacting customers value the benefits that self-coloring offers:

  • Reduced raw material costs because larger, more cost-effective amounts of uncolored product can be purchased
  • Increased production flexibility due to shorter color changeover times, especially with frequent changes of color
  • Clearly simplified material logistics because of smaller warehousing needs, centralized raw material stocks and raw material transport from bulk containers or silo
