The Power of Connected Minds

See how the construction of our Pasumai catalyst plant in Chennai, India provided a boost to both a greener environment and careers. 

It is happening

217,000 new cars are added to Indian roads every month. The level of harmful emission is growing exponentially. That’s where we come in.

A global junction
Bringing together people and experts from various professions

The thought of living in a greener environment has inspired a group of diverse professional experts. At BASF, a team of dedicated electrical, instrumentation, mechanical and process engineers along with business managers came together and created a catalytic converter which helps to protect the air we breathe from harmful emissions. Our catalysts are widely deployed, for example in cars, aircrafts and factories.

To achieve optimal results, worldwide collaboration would be key. Countless challenges and opportunities presented themselves to the team and provided both personal and professional development in a safe workplace. We call this: “The power of connected minds”.

The many hurdles

On the road to success, there are many hurdles. We were able to overcome these roadblocks by careful planning with utmost precision. Logistical factors like land feasibility, infrastructure cost and other variables were accounted for by mapping out a detailed blueprint.

The planning process enabled the team to identify crucial milestones which would see a barren land changed into a thriving plant within our project timeline.

Journey towards accomplishment

When our ideas came to life

Driven by the goal towards a greener environment, we made sure that while constructing the plant, our carbon footprint was kept minimal. We brought together bright minds with expertise in Sales and Marketing, Engineering and Instrumental and Process Technology. As a result, the development of the Pasumai plant enabled BASF to produce catalytic converters on a large-scale base.

Striving to win
Connecting the mind to the market

After the the plant was up and running, our Sales and Product team took over the reins, and created a platform that was able to deliver our catalysts to a thriving market.  

And the journey continues

The Pasumai plant is one example that showcases the values and beliefs of BASF, however the journey does not end here. It is in fact only one of the many building blocks that will help transform our world into a better and greener place. Innovation plays a key role in BASF. We work continuously on new products, pioneering technologies and modern production processes for a sustainable future.
