MOSCOW (MRC) --
BASF has created a unique �MySetta� show car based on a 1958 BMW Isetta
250. The MySetta is a two-seater that you enter through the front.
Innovative BASF products were used to give the car a modern outfit. The
MySetta�s chassis, the body, the add-on parts and its interior were completely
refurbished. For the overhaul, BASF paints, coated fabrics and flexible foam
were used.
BASF�s broad portfolio made this individual
project possible. Whether for polyurethane foams for ergonomically correct
seats, lightweight engine mounts made of plastic, or unusual coatings, BASF is
the world�s largest automotive supplier in the chemical industry. �The
automotive industry is one of the BASF Group�s most important customer segments.
In order to consolidate the activities and competencies, a lively exchange takes
place in the cross-divisional teams,� said Harald Pflanzl, Head of Automotive
Refinish Europe at BASF.
The automotive industry is
one of BASF�s key customer industries, accounting for up to 15 percent of the
Group�s total sales. As the world�s leading automotive supplier in the chemical
industry, BASF is recognized as a reliable and competent partner by carmakers,
suppliers, and the after-sales market. With a strong presence in Europe, Africa,
North and South America, as well as in Asia, BASF has a global industry network.
It supplies and develops functional materials and solutions that contribute to
the vehicles of today and of the future. From engineering plastics, polyurethane
and specialty foams, coatings and fuel additives to catalysts, battery
materials, pigments, synthetic lubricants, coolants, brake fluids and chemicals
for leather and textiles, BASF supplies a broad range of products for use in the
automotive industry. Sales to the automotive industry in 2012 were EUR9.5
billion. |
