BASF and Dow to conduct feasibility study for European TDI facility

22/11/2006

BASF AG and The Dow Chemical Company have announced plans to conduct a joint feasibility study for the construction of a state-of-the-art production plant for toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and precursors at one of their integrated sites in Europe. The plant would have an annual capacity of 300,000 metric tons and would be the world’s largest such facility ever built. The study will take into consideration factors such as location, technology and infrastructure. Should the project prove viable, the facility would start operations in 2011.

“With this approach BASF solidifies its commitment to the global TDI market by evaluating additional production capabilities,” said Jacques Delmoitiez, president of BASF’s Polyurethanes division.
