New Clear Coats. ChemCycling Technology.
At Automechanika 2024, BASF Coatings presented new Glasurit Eco Balance and R-M eSense product lines that utilize ChemCycling technology based on biomass balance. This technology makes it possible to use raw materials obtained from used tires to produce clear coats, contributing to reduced consumption of fossil raw materials and CO2 emissions.
The new clear coats are characterized by fast drying times, which allows for accelerating the repair process and reducing energy consumption. These products align with the concept of a circular economy and represent an important step towards sustainable development in the automotive industry. The carbon dioxide emission associated with the new color resins is expected to be reduced by up to 50%.
