BASF Polyurethanes GmbH, in the vicinity of Osnabrück and Bremen in Lemförde, Lower Saxony, is the market and technology leader for polyurethane systems and specialist plastics in Europe.

The group company counts among one of the five largest BASF sites in Europe. With our market-oriented focus, we develop, produce, and supply performance materials – a general term for engineering plastics and polyurethanes – and basic polyurethane components.

In 2015, over 1,500 employees in Lemförde achieved a turnover of more than 2.2 billion euros. This makes the company, founded in 1962, one of the largest employers in the local Dümmer See region, famed for its leisure activities. 30 km north-east of Osnabrück, the location is the global research site for specialty polyurethanes in the BASF Group, employing over 200 people in research and development.

Our performance materials make life more comfortable and consistently help to save energy. They help to insulate buildings more effectively and to make vehicles lighter. Manufacturers in almost all industrial sectors worldwide use the potential and benefits of our special plastics.

We offer our employees an attractive working environment and excellent conditions, so that they can best bring their knowledge and innovative ideas to success and further develop both professionally and personally.
