What Reuters and others report
BASF recently drew attention in the automotive materials space by presenting a fiber-based 3D armrest for vehicle interiors together with Japan’s Wacoal, using a specialty plastic from its portfolio to enable glue-free, more recyclable components in car cabins.
The partner Wacoal contributes its "Melooop" forming technology, which can shape complex three-dimensional structures from fiber materials, while BASF supplies the polymer know-how that targets weight reduction and improved end-of-life recyclability in interior parts.
Chart picture around key averages
On European trading platforms BASF shares most recently changed hands around the mid-EUR 48 to EUR 49 range, implying a modest decline compared with levels above EUR 50 seen earlier in June according to real-time quote services.
Technical traders watch the 200-day moving average as a medium-term trend gauge; current pricing puts BASF approximately in that neighborhood, which means the next sustained move above or below could shape sentiment among chart-oriented investors.
