UNDERSTANDING THE REGIONAL IMPORTANCE OF WATER
The BASF Group operates globally and must plan its water consumption along the entire value chain according to the respective catchment area. For example, water is used for the manufacture of products, as a coolant and cleaning agent and as a transport route. Against this background, it is therefore an obligation to reduce emissions to water through production processes and to optimize them through the multiple use of water in cycles.
According to its own statements, the entire BASF Group has adopted the goals of the chemical industry's voluntary Responsible Care initiative. In addition, it is also important for the company to understand water consumption and its effects in the respective regions.

The use of water has many implications for the Group. On the one hand as a solvent for e.g. polyurethane coatings, but also the saving possibilities as well as the reduction of other raw materials in the overall process are important. The company's products can be found, among other things, in textile production. An area that is accompanied by various trends and is subject to continuous change.

The iWater Group focuses on water purification and offers solutions for various industries. The company's products contribute to the reduction of antibiotics in livestock and pesticides in agriculture. With the global pursuit of prosperity and comfort, the demands placed on water management are also growing.
