BASF is further strengthening its position as an innovation leader and provider of essential ingredients for the home care and I&I industry by expanding its product portfolio for liquid enzymes.

BASF has continuously expanded its enzyme know-how in recent years. With the addition of a lipase, cellulase, and amylase to its offerings, BASF now provides a comprehensive range of all liquid enzyme types, meeting the high demands of its customers for high-quality and high-performance enzymes for various applications.

"The expansion and integration of these enzyme types into our first-class product portfolio allows us to collaboratively develop sustainable and high-performing solutions for laundry formulations with our customers," says Gisela Pinheiro, Senior Vice President Home Care and I&I Cleaning at BASF.

Lavergy L Pace is a liquid lipase that offers superior fat and oil stain removal at low temperatures, while Lavergy C Care is a liquid care cellulase that provides best-in-class fuzz and pills removal, enhancing the look and feel of cotton and cotton blend fabrics.

Lavergy C Care is highly stable, even in the presence of proteases. The amylase Lavergy A Star is a biodegradable enzyme solution that effectively removes starch stains, providing a deeper clean, even at low temperatures.

 These enzymes excel at removing stains from eggs, blood, and milk.
