Who are we

Our innovations in the field of chemistry provide answers to exactly those questions that will concern humanity in the future: raw materials, environment and climate, food and nutrition, and quality of life. Trends in these areas drive our innovation process and determine the topics which we should pursue.

We build the best teams

The influence of digital technologies is growing rapidly and is the driving force for the development of our processes and innovations. We want to utilize the opportunities associated with digitalization along the entire value chain. This is an exciting and multi-faceted project, which offers opportunities for the whole team.

Learn from the best engineers, researchers and business minds, who are blurring the boundaries between the physical and the digital world. As a member of our global team, you’ll have access to a huge network of more than 115,000 employees. You’ll work with them to develop trailblazing, innovative solutions that will change the future of our world.

What do we do

In a world where data is the new oil, the path we're pursuing is digital. We’re driving the digital transformation of the chemical industry by creating an integrated, networked value chain, optimizing production processes, and boosting our innovative strength. And we’re using new business models to set ourselves apart from our competitors and to drive transformation.

Our innovations

Here at BASF, virtual modeling and simulations on the computer go hand in hand with real experiments at the lab bench. Our supercomputer Quriosity enables us to work efficiently on complex issues and shorten the time to market for new products.

In automotive coatings, we use real-time data from our customers' paint lines to optimally adjust the color shade to customer needs. This allows us to ensure that the car has the right shade.

In the "Predictive Maintenance" application, we use sensors to determine live data on operating states in our production plants and evaluate this data by incorporating historical process data. This enables us to predict the functional status of critical plant components.

The Maglis™ online platform connects data, technologies and people in an intelligent way. The platform helps farms grow smarter, market yields better and be successful.
