Solutions along the product life circle.
Bio-renewable materials
With our Joncryl® BRC product line, you can formulate inks and coatings with increasing levels of bio-renewable raw materials, from 50 up to 64%.
Biomass balance approach.
For a significant product carbon footprint (PCF) reduction, BASF’s biomass balance approach can take you to net zero.
Our Joncryl® MB products make use of renewables for the production of our raw materials. They offer identical properties as their fossil counterparts in terms of formulation, quality, performance and food contact.

ChemCycling™ approach
Our ChemCycling™ approach enables the use of recycled plastic waste in our production process, saving fossil resources.
Water-based systems
We are convinced that water-based solutions are the future in packaging printing. With our Joncryl® portfolio for water-based inks, overprint varnishes and coatings, we offer a safer and healthier solution that performs as well as solvent-based systems. Plus, it also leaves you with a lower product carbon footprint (PCF).
For direct food contact, our Joncryl® HPB products give you much more freedom to create more sustainable, paper-based packaging. Our water-based high-performance barrier polymers help to create effective barriers for grease, mineral oil, water (vapor) and oxygen and are a great alternative to waxes and fluorocarbons.
A perfect closure of paper and flexible packaging keeps produce fresh and reduces food waste. So have a look at our broad range of Joncryl® HSL binders for heat-seal lacquers to find the perfect formulation for this purpose.
Effective liquid printable barrier coatings created with our Joncryl® HPB range enable packaging to get recycled via the regular paper waste stream.
Our Joncryl® binders for water-based printing inks, overprint varnishes and coatings are fully recyclable.
Most of the printing ink and overprint varnishes (OPV) produced with our water-based binders for food packaging are certified for compostable packaging and evaluations for barrier coatings are ongoing.
