By the end of 2014, BASF will have built a new European centre of expertise for its flooring and waterproofing systems at the BASF Coatings GmbH site in Oldenburg, Germany. The company is investing in the production and development of polyurethane and epoxy-based systems for flooring and waterproofing, together with logistics, research, sales and service. The investment is the next step in the development of these businesses, following the sale of the CONICA Sports Surfaces business line and the Swiss Schaffhausen site on July 1, 2013.
