With this innovation, BASF and VAUDE seek to make a contribution towards reducing waste and preserving valuable resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur Ultramid\u00ae Ccycled\u2122 is an innovative polyamide 6 that can be used to manufacture high-quality textiles. During production, we save fossil-based raw materials while also offering our customers a reduced carbon footprint,\u201d stated Christoph Gahn, Vice President Business Management Polyamides at BASF. Ren\u00e9 Bethmann, Innovation Manager at VAUDE, added: \u201cWe want to be a pioneer in building up a circular economy for our functional clothing. Our goal is to make a measurable contribution for the environment. This clearly includes reducing the amount of primary fossil resources used, as well as cutting down on the CO<sub>2<\/sub> emitted when making our products. By using Ultramid\u00ae Ccycled<sup>TM<\/sup>, we can reduce the carbon footprint by more than half*.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>BASF feeds pyrolysis oil from old tires into its production Verbund in Ludwigshafen, and in doing so partially replaces fossil resources. The share of recycled raw material is assigned to certain products manufactured in the Verbund using a certified mass balance approach. As products with \u201cCcycled<sup>TM<\/sup>\u201d in their name have exactly the same properties as the equivalents made from fossil raw materials, customers can process them in the same manner and use them in their conventional processes. Accordingly, Ultramid\u00ae Ccycled<sup>TM<\/sup> can also be used in applications with high quality and performance requirements, such as in the textile industry.<\/p>\n<p>* based on the HIGG Material Sustainability Index<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new product line of the outdoor apparel company VAUDE will be available in stores from March 2022<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","nova_meta_subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5572],"tags":[5838,14928,5528],"supplier":[75,13610],"class_list":["post-86655","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bio-based","tag-bioeconomy","tag-fashion","tag-sustainability","supplier-basf-se","supplier-vaude"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86655","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/58"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=86655"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86655\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=86655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=86655"},{"taxonomy":"supplier","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/supplier?post=86655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
