Who we are

1866 / First Company Phyiscian

Just one year after its founding, BASF hires a company physician – the very first in the German chemical industry. The Medical Department thereby founded moves into a new well-equipped outpatient clinic around 1900. The Royal Bavarian Occupational Physician responsible at the time lauds its „remarkable treatment and operating facilities, x-ray room, halls for physical therapy and medicinal baths.“
