GROWTH PLANS/SPECIAL FEATURES
BASF SE, formerly BASF AG, is a chemical manufacturing company that serves customers in more than 170 countries. Around 19% of BASF sales are made to North American industries. The firm operates in six business segments: chemicals; plastics; performance products; agricultural solutions; functional solutions; and oil and gas. The chemicals segment manufactures inorganic, petrochemical and intermediate chemicals for the pharmaceutical, construction, textile and automotive industries. The plastics segment primarily manufactures polystyrene, styrenics and performance polymers for the manufacturing and packaging industries. The performance polymers segment produces pigments, inks, printing supplies, coatings and polymers for the automotive, oil, packaging, textile, detergent, sanitary care, construction and chemical industries. The firm's agricultural solutions segment produces and markets genetically engineered plants, nutritional supplements, herbicides, fungicides and insecticides for use in agriculture, public health and pest control. The functional solutions segment develops automotive and industrial catalysts; construction chemicals; and coatings and refinishes for automotive and construction markets. The oil and gas segment is operated through BASF subsidiary Wintershall AG, which focuses on petroleum and natural gas exploration and production in North America, Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. BASF also employs chemical nanotechnology in pigments that are used to color coatings, paints and plastics; and sunscreen. The company is one of the world's leading R&D firms, with 8,000 employees working in research in 70 sites worldwide, employing a research budget of $1.3 billion Euros yearly. In April 2009, the firm acquired specialty chemicals maker Ciba Holding AG. Also in 2009, BASF announced plans to eliminate 2,000 jobs and shorten hours for another 3,000 workers. In June 2010, the company agreed to purchase Cognis Deutschland GmbH & Co KG, a specialty chemicals company, for approximately $ 4.1 billion.
