BASF, San Fang Chemical Industrial, and Nichetech Advanced Materials have signed an MoU to jointly develop sustainable solutions for the footwear industry.

 

The first milestone of this collaboration will be the introduction of Global Recycled Standard (GRS)-certified TPU films, combining high performance with environmental responsibility.

 

These films will enable footwear brands to incorporate recycled materials without compromising quality or durability. Building on this foundation, the partners will expand the portfolio with additional GRS-certified products that meet international recycling standards, delivering innovative solutions for brands and consumers worldwide.

 

Leveraging each partner’s expertise

 

The strategic alliance leverages each partner’s expertise. BASF has extensive know-how in sustainable and high-performance materials and applications. The company contributes its advanced TPU technology and global reach, enabling large-scale adoption of recycled materials.

 

San Fang develops key raw materials and application technologies and actively promotes environmentally friendly products for a circular economy such as recycled polyester polyols.

 

Nichetech specializes in high-performance flexible films and possesses advanced manufacturing capabilities and a strong footwear market knowledge. Leveraging on San Fang’s expertise in recycled polyester polyols, Nichetech brings deep knowledge in TPU film applications and a dedication to driving industry-wide change.

 

Through technological innovation, resource integration, and stringent quality control, the partners will actively promote use of recycled materials across footwear materials and related applications – defining the future of sustainability in the industry.
