Sch\u00fctz and BASF have signed an agreement for the construction of the highly automated production and storage facility, which will be built directly at BASF's headquarters. Construction work is scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2026.<\/p>\n<h2>Strategic Partnership for Maximum Efficiency<\/h2>\n<p>The close proximity between Sch\u00fctz's new production plant and the BASF headquarters in Ludwigshafen offers decisive advantages. The companies emphasise that the ability to minimise transport routes and ensure 24\/7 just-in-time deliveries will significantly increase supply security.<\/p><div class=\"packa-in-post-alle\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"packa-2891183513\"><div id=\"packa-3311270785\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/newsletter\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"PJ Self-promotion English 03\"><!--noptimize--><img src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png 840w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-18x5.png 18w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-332x83.png 332w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-664x166.png 664w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-688x172.png 688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" width=\"840\" height=\"210\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><!--\/noptimize--><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<p>As part of a new supply concept, not only a state-of-the-art production facility will be built, but also a digitised packaging materials warehouse will be introduced.
