ALBIS is strengthening its long-standing partnership with BASF through new distribution rights for Ultramid® (PA), Ultramid® Advanced (PPA), Ultradur® (PBT), Ultraform® (POM) and Ultrason® (PSU, PESU, PPSU) in Italy.
Solutions for automotive, E&E, appliances and medical sectors
The family-owned distributor based in Hamburg has served as an international distribution partner for BASF’s brands for more than fifty years, including China as well as large parts of Europe and North Africa.
“With BASF’s versatile engineering plastics portfolio, ALBIS strengthens its market position with customers in the Italian sales region – particularly in the area of sustainable solutions,” says Daniel Stöcker, vice president BU Engineering Plastics at ALBIS. “Thanks to our consulting expertise, we offer customers not only innovative materials but also in-depth technical support in the implementation of their projects.”
BASF’s product families offer solutions for a wide range of applications – including the automotive industry, electrical and electronics sectors, household appliances, precision engineering, and medical technology. BASF continuously expands its portfolio with sustainable solutions such as mass-balanced products based on biomass, recycled feedstock (ChemCycling®), and products with a reduced carbon footprint (LowPCF).
“ALBIS has been active in the Italian market for many years and is excellently positioned across Europe to strengthen the presence of Ultradur®, Ultramid®, Ultraform®, and Ultrason® in the region,” adds Larsen Kolberg, director Distributor Management Engineering Plastics EMEA at BASF. “With the decision to also grant ALBIS distribution rights for our engineering plastics in Italy, we are expanding a successful and internationally proven partnership.”
