At CHINAPLAS 2024, BASF will present consumer products made with bio-based Ultramid® polyamide. With Huawei, BASF co-created smart glasses containing 39% bio-content in the glasses temple, while with Prohero, the frame of floating sunglasses contains 30% bio-content.

“These consumer products are solid examples demonstrating how BASF enables our customers to meet their sustainability goals, and accelerating our plastics journey towards a more sustainable future,” said Andy Postlethwaite, Senior Vice President, Performance Materials Asia Pacific, BASF.

Huawei smart glasses: Durable and lightweight for greater comfort

By using Ultramid, Huawei successfully reduces the weight of the smart glasses temple by 15%-20% compared with the existing smart glasses made with other material. Lightweight glasses reduce pressure points and are less likely to slide down.

Owing to Ultramid’s excellent warpage properties, the smart glasses are also more durable and long-lasting. The comfort and durability of the materials used in the product ensures a positive customer experience.

Prohero floating sunglasses: Ease of coloring improves process efficiency

The floating sunglasses co-created with Prohero are not only lightweight and sustainable, but also an easy-to-color solution. This is attributable to the consistent molding process, as well as excellent primers and paint adhesion.
