Pescafácil starts transporting fish and seafood in Knauf Industries’ CELOOPS® boxes produced with Ccycled® EPS from BASF
Ludwigshafen, Germany, and Barcelona, Spain – Sea products supplier Pescafácil, specialized in seafood, has started using fish boxes made of Knauf Industries’ CELOOPS® material, which is produced using expandable polystyrene (EPS) granules Styropor® Ccycled® from BASF. In the manufacturing process of Ccycled® materials, fossil feedstocks are replaced by pyrolysis oil at the very beginning of the BASF value chain. This pyrolysis oil is obtained from post-consumer plastic waste through chemical recycling and attributed to the EPS via the mass balance approach. By this, the three companies contribute strongly to the circularity of plastics.

BASF presents two new recycling processes for polyamides from end-of-life vehicles
BASF develops two recycling routes for PA6 from end-of-life vehicles: depolymerization and solvent‑based recycling. Pilot projects with ZF and Pöppelmann show near‑series use, processing components for Mercedes‑Benz. The aim: return dismantled parts and complex waste streams (z. B. ASR) to high‑quality recyclates, supporting a circular plastics economy.
BASF launches first rice yield guarantee via xarvio® HEALTHY FIELDS with AI-powered “Humus” soil improvement service

BASF, Porsche, and BEST successfully complete pilot project on chemical recycling
Ludwigshafen, Germany, 29 September 2025. Porsche AG and BASF SE, in collaboration with technology partner BEST - Bioenergy and Sustainable Technologies GmbH, have successfully completed a pilot project on recycling mixed waste from end-of-life vehicles. The pilot project demonstrates the recyclability of high-performance plastics from automotive shredder residues (ASR) together with renewable raw materials. This mixture of plastic, film, paint, and foam residues is so complex that it can currently only be thermally recycled. The pilot project shows that these automotive wastes can be recycled through gasification, a special type of chemical recycling, and returned to the automotive cycle.
