2007 marked the 10th anniversary for BASF PETRONAS Chemicals Sdn Bhd. Over the years, we have built up operational excellence in providing quality products and maintaining high standards of supply and specific logistics solutions to our customers and other stakeholders.

This partnership excellence was reflected in our 10th Anniversary symbol and tagline. The symbol depicts a pair of stylised hands. Ten fingers for ten years of dynamic and continuous growth. Beyond this, the two hands symbolise partnership excellence with our partners and stakeholders:

Our company to our customers; our company to our shareholders; BASF and PETRONAS; our company to our community in Kuantan and Kuala Lumpur; our company to our employees; and our company to our HSE responsibilities – all reflecting our company's core value of cohesiveness.

The 10th Anniversary symbol was designed with a dynamic and fluid edge, and injected with fresh growth colours of warm green and lively blue. These signify life, growth and living and are strong analogies to the organisation's commitment to Sustainable Development.
