With Tinuvin NOR 600, BASF introduces a next generation NOR-HALS light stabilizer at K2025. This innovative solution expands BASF’s established NOR-HALS platform. It demonstrates advanced performance when acid resistance or prolonged weatherability is required.

Tinuvin NOR 600 is engineered as a high-performance synergist, offering exceptional protection when used in combination with other BASF light stabilizers.

Its advanced chemistry enhances durability of PVC including its alloys and polyolefin-based plastics against sunlight and heat making it ideal for applications such as roofing membranes and artificial turf.

The free-flowing, low-dust product form enables safe and easy handling for converters and masterbatch producers to formulate differentiated, long-lasting solutions for demanding environments.

“As the market for outdoor plastics evolves, customers demand solutions that go beyond standard performance. With Tinuvin NOR 600, we are expanding our NOR-HALS portfolio and setting a new benchmark in light stabilization. This product enables our partners to create cutting-edge solutions in durability and to differentiate against competition,” says Joerg Bentlage, Head of Global Product Management, Plastic Additives, BASF.

Tinuvin NOR 600 is a NOR HALS, a special class of light-stabilizer used in plastics to protect them from harmful UV radiation and the resulting degradation. It is part of BASF’s VALERAS sustainability platform, supporting resource efficiency, waste reduction, and circularity in plastics.
