DETAILS
- More production capacities for
high-performance pigments in Nanjing, China - Expansion of capacities for the production of
alpha blue pigments in Ludwigshafen
BASF is strengthening its global production network
for pigments with two new investments.
1.At the site in Nanjing, China, the company has increased
its production capacities for high-performance
diketopyrrolopyrrole pigments (DPP).
“DPP pigments are a high-quality alternative to
lead-chromate-based pigments
that are increasingly being regulated all over the world"
2.In Ludwigshafen, BASF is going to expand its capacities
for the production of versatile alpha blue pigments,
which are particularly characterized
by their excellent fastness properties,
by the fall of 2016.
The color-intensive and extremely lightfast
and weatherproof DPP pigments, which are marketed by BASF
are – among other applications – used for
automotive, industrial and powder coatings,
paints and inks as well as for plastic applications.
By expanding its capacities in Nanjing, BASF has responded
to the ever-increasing demand
for high-performance pigments, particularly in Asia-Pacific.
