At this year's Index, BASF presents the innovative technology Irgatec ® CR 76 for nonwoven production. This technology enables converters to adapt material properties to the specific requirements, for example to make use of more cost efficient raw materials or to convert in-house nonwoven scrap to high-quality nonwoven.

Another focus in BASF's portfolio for nonwoven manufacturers is the halogen-free flame retardant Flamestab ® NOR ™ 116 which combines flame retardancy and light stability in one molecule. One area of application for Flamestab ® NOR ™ 116 is in textiles for roofing.
