Building a sustainable future At BASF, we create more than just chemicals - we create chemistry. For over 50 years, we have worked closely with industry stakeholders to enable successful sustainable construction projects. With BASF chemistry, buildings can be more durable and require fewer resources for maintenance. Chemistry also makes buildings more energy efficient, thus protecting our environment. In 2050, nine billion people will live on this planet. Three-quarters of this population will live in cities. The increasing urbanization of the population will require new concepts for housing and construction. Sustainability is therefore a crucial issue for our future. What is our way ahead? How should we tackle new challenges together?
