11 Jun 2024 --- BASF is extending its portfolio of certified compostable biopolymers to include a new “biomass-balanced” version of Ecoflex — the company’s brand of polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) frequently used in compounding biopolymers. The new Ecoflex F Blend C1200 BMB is claimed to have a 60% lower product carbon footprint than BASF’s standard Ecoflex grade. It is also organically recyclable at its end of use. At the beginning of its production, BASF switches out fossil-based raw materials with renewable feedstock from waste and residual biomass.
