BASF (Ludwigshafen, Germany) has developed a chemical recycling process for used mattresses and started trials at its Schwarzheide plant in Brandenburg, Germany
.
Shankara Keelapandal, head of the European Isocyanates business, said: "The goal is to recycle the raw material so that it is of comparable quality to the unrecycled/unrecycled raw material
.
BASF's process breaks down the flexible polyurethane and provides the polyol that was originally used
.
With the implementation of the new process, BASF has intensified its efforts to improve sustainability and take a step towards a circular economy
.
In May, Dow announced plans to install an industrial-scale mattress recycling facility to produce polyols through chemical recycling
