The non-profit organization CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) has again ranked BASF as one of the world’s leading companies for its water management and forest and climate protection measures. BASF achieved the top rating “A” in the CDP assessment for sustainable water management and was rated “A-” in the other two categories.

“I am proud that CDP has again recognized BASF as a global leader and particularly pleased that we have received an “A” rating in the water management category,” said Dr. Martin Brudermüller, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of BASF SE. “Sustainability is at the top of our agenda despite the current tough environment and reducing our CO2 emissions remains a key priority. We will not rest in our efforts to reach our sustainability targets.”

BASF once again achieved an “A-” rating on CDP’s climate list and thus leadership status. BASF has participated in CDP’s program for reporting on data relevant to climate protection since 2004.
