Styropor^® BMB

The new packaging for the ice cream from IceGuerilla is made by Schaumaplast from BASFâ s raw material StyroporÂ® P 426 C MB. The product originates from the companyâ s biomass balance method. By using this material, the customer ensures that at BASF all the fossil resources that are required to manufacture it are replaced by renewable resources. Compared to its conventional predecessor, the MB product is technically unchanged. Besides StyroporÂ® there is also the gray NeoporÂ®, which is used for insulation products, now available as a biomass balance product.

Die neue Verpackung fÃ¼r das Eis von IceGuerilla wird von Schaumaplast aus dem Rohstoff StyroporÂ® P 426 C MB der BASF gefertigt: Das Produkt entstammt dem Biomassenbilanz-Verfahren der BASF: Durch seinen Einsatz sorgt der Kunde dafÃ¼r, dass bei BASF die gesamten zu seiner Herstellung nÃ¶tigen fossilen Rohstoffe durch erneuerbare Ressourcen ersetzt werden. GegenÃ¼ber seinem konventionellen VorgÃ¤nger ist das MB-Produkt technisch unverÃ¤ndert. Neben StyroporÂ® gibt es nun auch das graue NeoporÂ®, das fÃ¼r DÃ¤mmprodukte Verwendung findet, als Biomassenbilanz-Produkt.

Application: Protection and insulation

Sustainability performance:

EPS (expandable polystyrene) produced using BASF’s biomass balance approach
The fossil resources needed to manufacture Styropor^® are replaced entirely with renewable resources at the very beginning of the production value chain.
Each biomass balance product helps to conserve fossil resources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The quality of Styropor^® BMB is unchanged compared to its fossil counterpart.

Styropor^® BMB contributes to resource conservation while keeping its technical properties intact.
