BASF launched the ultra-low embodied carbon version of Neopor® Graphite Polystyrene called Biomass Balance (BMB) at the 2022 AIA Conference. The biomass balance approach combines renewable feedstock with traditional fossil feedstock during production allowing more fossil fuels to stay in-ground, protecting the environment and climate by reducing CO2 emissions while still delivering proven product quality. In conjunction with Habitat for Humanity, Neopor® BMB was showcased in a low-carbon concrete affordable home project in Will County, Ill. This innovative project was designed by Smith & Gill architects.
