Product Texts

Ultradur® B1523 FC R01 UN is suitable for plastic parts, where material approval regarding drinking water contact and direct food contact is a mandatory requirement.

The product is approved according to
· 21 CFR FDA §177.1660 "Poly(tetramethylene terephthalate)";
· European Food Contact European Food Contact Commission Regulation (EU) 10/2011;
· GMP (EC) N°2023/2006
For questions regarding the compliance with further regulations, and certificates, please contact your local BASF representative or Plastics Safety (E-Mail: plastics.safety@basf.com).

The products can also be offered as BMBcert™ and/or Ccycled™. Due to the Massbalance approach the product properties do not change.
