Chemistry for a Greener Future

Measurable sustainability, not slogans: certified Product Carbon Footprint and C-BAM-ready supply chains.

PCF

PCF — Product Carbon Footprint

The Product Carbon Footprint measures the total greenhouse-gas emissions of a product across its life cycle, from raw materials to factory gate (cradle-to-gate), expressed in kg CO₂e per kg of product.

Every BASF product we distribute comes with a certified PCF value. From regular grades to LowPCF and BMBcert™ options, you can choose exactly how much carbon you take out of your supply chain.

AdBlue® ZeroPCF

PCF 0*

PCF values in kg CO₂e/kg — lower is better. BMBcert™ grades use certified biomethane and renewable energy.

C-BAM

C-BAM Ready

The EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) puts a price on the embedded carbon of imported goods — and urea-based products are directly affected.

By sourcing European-made, low-PCF products through Resnova, importers and industrial users minimise CBAM exposure and simplify their emissions reporting.
