Our contributions to enable the green transformation

BASF has published a comprehensive corporate carbon footprint since 2008, the only industrial enterprise worldwide to do so.

BASF already offers thousands of products with reduced or even zero carbon footprint (PCF) in its broad portfolio.

Another key contribution in our development, innovation and production work is thinking in terms of the circular economy: reuse, recycling, etc.

As an energy-intensive company, we are committed to the efficient use of energy and global climate protection and support the Paris Climate Agreement. We pursue the goal of climate neutrality and promote low-emission chemistry to enable the green transformation of our customers.

The purpose of Eco-Efficiency Analysis is to harmonize economy and ecology. This involves carrying out an overall study of alternative solutions to include a total cost determination and the calculation of ecological impact over the entire life cycle.

BASF supports the Alliance against Plastic Waste in the Environment initiative as a founding member because a joint effort by companies, governmental and non-governmental organizations and civil society is needed to meet the global challenge of plastic waste in the environment.
