en.Wedoany.com Reported - BASF and Avery Dennison have collaborated to launch butyl acrylate RE and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate RE at the Freeport, Texas plant in the United States. These products are produced using renewable electricity, helping to reduce carbon emissions and improve product carbon footprint.

These renewable electricity-based acrylates utilize power from wind energy and solar energy in Texas, replacing all electricity consumption at the plant and achieving low-carbon manufacturing processes.

BASF states that the new products are identical in quality and performance to conventional acrylates and are suitable for polymer dispersions, primarily targeting the coatings and adhesives industries.

Avery Dennison has taken the lead in commercializing these renewable electricity-based acrylates, supporting its goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the supply chain and promoting the use of sustainable materials in the adhesives sector.

Michael Linbach, Vice President of Industrial Petrochemicals North America at BASF, said: "This collaboration demonstrates our joint efforts to advance low-carbon development. Through responsible production, we provide high-performance acrylates to meet market demands."

Collins Oluka, Vice President of Materials Group North America and Global Chemical Sourcing at Avery Dennison, said: "The collaboration with BASF strengthens our commitment to introducing sustainable materials into the supply chain. Such innovations help achieve long-term environmental goals, and we will continue to expand sustainable solutions."

Both BASF and Avery Dennison are committed to reducing their carbon footprints by investing in renewable energy, optimizing production technologies, and other methods to lower emissions in their operations and supply chains.
