CCycled®

ChemCycling® is the process of recycling waste tires, which contributes to a circular economy, saving fossil raw materials, avoiding waste, and cutting CO2 emissions. Join the mission and reduce your impact on our planet.

CCycled®

We're reinventing the wheel.

By recycling waste tires and using them as a resource in the manufacturing process, we're drastically reducing CO2.

CCycled®

ChemCycling® uses recycled feedstock derived from waste tires, which is then attributed to our certified Ccycled® products. This keeps them away from landfills or incineration. As part of the Mass Balance approach, these raw materials are then used to create new refinish products. This contributes to a circular economy, saving fossil raw materials, avoiding waste, and cutting CO2 emissions.

* Per kilogram per product. Based on A-C-24. Carbon footprint data is based on assumptions and approximations valid at the time of data collection. For more information, please visit: ecobalance.glasurit.com.

*** For each 5l can Clear Coat, two end-of-life tires are recycled into pyrolysis oil, substituting fossil feedstock via mass balance.

**BASF product carbon footprints are calculated following the requirements and guidelines of ISO 14067:2018 and Together for Sustainability (TfS). The product carbon footprints for biomass balance products are assessed cradle to gate, i.e. without CO2 emissions caused during product application and end-of-life treatment. Our product carbon footprint data is based on assumptions and approximations valid at the time of data collection. For ChemCycling products, product carbon footprint benefits for the recycled feedstock can be generated via displaced end of life (e.g., incineration) following the upstream system expansion approach (USE).

Eco Balance products contribute to reducing the use of fossil resources and reducing the CO2 emissions via the mass balance approach. In BASF’s mass balance approach, renewable or recycled raw materials are used when manufacturing primary chemical products and are fed into the production Verbund. The proportion of bio-based or recycled raw materials is then arithmetically assigned to certain sales products according to a certified method. For our mass balance products, 100% of the feedstock required for these products (chemical product only, excluding packaging material) have been replaced by renewable or recycled resources. All our Eco Balance products are independently certified according to the RedCert² standard (BASF certification number REDcert²-929-35372286). For more information, please visit this page. When reference is made to CO2savings per traveled kilometer, a standard CO2 emission of 95 grams per travelled car kilometer is assumed.

References to equivalent numbers of end-of-life tires refer to a standard tire of 8.8 KG and an assumption of the available tire mass for pyrolysis and a conversion factor for the pyrolysis process. You can find more information about BASF’s mass balance approach on this page.
