Ultramid Flex F38L is an entirely new, partly bio-based copolyamide. The softness and extremely high transparency allows manufacturers to use a polyamide for vacuum skin packaging. The new grade has a different O2/CO2 transmission ratio to all other polyamides and can be used for cheese ripening bags or modified atmosphere packaging.
Ultramid C37LC is a new copolyamide allowing manufacturers of shrink film for food packaging to achieve higher hot water and hot air shrinkage.
BASF is presenting the biomass balance approach applied for the packaging industry. Using this concept, renewable raw materials are used as feedstock in the beginning of BASF’s integrated Verbund production system and then allocated to specific sales products. As a consequence, these products save fossil resources and help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
