BASF launches engineering plastics that meet EU food standards

The EU's GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standard for plastic materials that come into direct contact with food came into effect in August 2008. This regulation has raised the bar for quality assurance and process control in the production of food-contact plastics. In response, BASF is introducing a range of new engineering plastics specifically designed for the food industry in Europe. These include Ultramid® A3K FC (unreinforced), Ultramid A3EG6 FC PA 6.6, and composite PBT materials. Additionally, the company is launching two versions of Ultradur®—the non-reinforced B4520 FC and the glass-reinforced B4300 G6 FC—as well as three base polymers under the Ultradur FC line. The "FC" designation stands for "Food Contact," indicating that these materials are suitable for use in food-related applications. BASF has long been a key player in the food industry, supplying high-quality and safe plastic materials. With the new GMP standards, the company is reinforcing its commitment to safety by implementing stricter material selection processes, more rigorous production controls, and enhanced quality management systems. To support its customers, BASF will provide EU certifications for all relevant products, ensuring compliance with the latest regulations. In addition to the newly launched materials, BASF’s Ultrason® (PSU, PESU, PPSU) and Ultraform® (POM) product lines have consistently focused on food-grade applications. These materials have already passed all necessary quality and safety certifications, making them ideal choices for manufacturers looking for reliable and compliant solutions in the food sector. By staying ahead of regulatory changes and continuously innovating, BASF is helping its customers meet the evolving demands of the food industry while maintaining the highest standards of safety and performance.
