Performance differentiation by combining enzymes with a quality product portfolio
With the latest expansion of its enzyme portfolio, BASF is stepping up its game as an innovation leader and provider of key ingredients for the home care and I&I industry. Enzymes are essential ingredients of modern detergent formulations.

What’s more, Lavergy® C Bright 100 L meets the criteria for various ecolabeling systems including EU Ecolabel and Blue Angel. Excellent cleaning performance, suitability for use with many types of fabric and good environmental compatibility are the hallmarks of BASF’s one-fits-all solution.
