For the body shops of the future: BASF launches new waterborne basecoat line

Being the pioneer in waterborne coatings solutions for the automotive industry, BASF’s Coatings division now presents its new, most advanced refinish product line. By increasing the efficiency and significantly lowering the environmental impact, the products meet the highest expectations of modern body shops. During the development of the waterborne basecoat line, the focus was put on sustainable aspects: The innovative formulation optimizes the processing properties for fast and efficient application and enables spray painters to produce highly efficient and at the same time environmentally friendly refinishing results. Besides reducing CO2 emissions due to shorter process times in the body shop, the value of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is consistently below 250g/l and thus the lowest on the market, making the new product line the eco-friendliest automotive refinish coatings available.
