Over the past month, teams across ECMS have come together to celebrate International Women’s Day — and to reflect on how we can continue to accelerate action toward gender equality in our workplaces and beyond. Our sites across the Americas focused on celebration, connection and giving back: 💜 Converse partnered with Project R.E.S.T., collecting clothing and supplies for those impacted by domestic violence and sexual assault in Upstate South Carolina. 💬 Huntsville hosted a Lunch & Learn panel featuring women leaders who shared stories on leadership, career growth and inclusion. The energy in the room reflected a shared commitment to mentorship and empowerment. 🙌 Seneca launched a digital campaign showcasing outstanding women on internal screens and public billboards. The local EmpowerHER chapter kept the celebration going with a March Madness Women’s Basketball Bracket Challenge, bringing employees together to recognize women in sports and beyond. In EMEA, appreciation and tradition set the tone: 🌸 At Nienburg and Hannover, leaders expressed gratitude to female colleagues with a personal message and a small gesture of flowers — recognizing their creativity, commitment and collaboration. 🌏 In Poland, we honored the long-standing March 8 tradition by sharing special wishes and tokens of appreciation. This year, the thoughtful gifts were of cosmetics, recognizing the many contributions of women in our teams.  Across Asia, colleagues celebrated the day in ways that reflected our diversity and unity: 🤝 In China, teams wore purple and gathered across multiple sites for celebration. Flowers and gifts were delivered by local leadership, and a skin health seminar led by Jacky Chen reinforced the importance of well-being and empowerment. In Guilin, the team enjoyed a local tea-making experience and creative flower arranging, blending culture with connection. 🙋♀️ In India, the day began with warm wishes from site leadership and continued with a wellness session on self-care. Personalized caricatures and roses brought smiles and reinforced the appreciation felt across the site. 🌟 In ASEAN, the theme "Glow & Grow: She Believed She Could, So She Did" came to life through a makeup workshop and lively celebration. Gifts of self-care items rounded out a day filled with encouragement and energy. We’re proud of the ways our teams showed up for each other this International Women’s Day. Whether through a small gesture or a bold conversation, every action brings us closer to a more inclusive and empowered workplace. Let’s keep accelerating. #IWD2025 #AccelerateAction #OneECMS #CelebrateWomen #InclusiveWorkplace #DiversityInAction #EmpowerHer #TogetherWeLead #StrongerTogether #LeadWithPurpose 

On March 27, ECMS India inaugurated a new safe drinking water plant in Maraimalai Nagar's Ward No. 12, providing affordable clean water to over 10,000 residents who previously lacked access. 🌍💧 The inauguration featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony, traditional blessings, and distribution of the first jars of clean water to local residents, symbolizing the immediate benefits to the community. This facility includes automated 1000 LPH treatment with multi-stage purification, smart card-based dispensing, and an aesthetic design with full glass frontage. Water is one of our most precious elements of life, and we're dedicated to protecting and preserving it for future generations. At ECMS India, we're committed to improving community health and quality of life through sustainable water solutions. This initiative aligns with our broader purpose - protecting the essential elements that sustain life on our planet.  #CSR #CleanWater #Sustainability #CommunityImpact #ECMS #WaterForAll 

Workplaces are more than just buildings 🏢 — they’re spaces that inspire, support, and bring people together. As part of a new campaign highlighting our favorite spaces across ECMS sites, we’re spotlighting the Sample Lab at the ECMS site in Guilin, China — a place that holds special meaning for Jane Han, Assistant Engineer in Sample Manufacturing. “Since joining ECMS in August 2023, I’ve had the chance to pursue my passion for science and technology 🔬 while contributing real value through various projects. For example, I helped optimize the coating production line to ensure smooth operations,” Jane shared. “But what means even more to me is how these experiences have shown that women can thrive in technical careers 👩🔬 — not just traditional roles. Growing up, I often heard that women should pursue ‘suitable’ paths. Today, I proudly stand as proof that women can excel as technicians too. You just have to dare to choose what you love.” Jane also highlighted the collaborative spirit of the lab: “Many of the projects wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my colleagues, who always stepped in when I faced challenges. It’s that teamwork that empowers us to make a real difference — together.” Stay tuned as we continue to spotlight more inspiring spaces and the people who bring them to life across our ECMS sites. 📍 #BehindTheScenes #LifeAtECMS #WorkplaceCulture #EmployeeExperience

From thoughtful gestures to powerful conversations, this year's International Women’s Day celebrations at BASF ECMS reflected the many ways our teams are building a more inclusive and supportive culture. Across regions and roles, we took time to recognize the women who move our business forward — and the actions we can take, together, to create lasting impact. Our global IWD event was a powerful moment of connection. Women from across businesses, functions, and career stages shared their stories, insights, and perspectives in an open, honest panel that sparked meaningful dialogue across our community. 💬💡 Thank you to Andrea McCarthy, Maureen Paukert, APR, Amrutha Ajith, Amani Ahamed and Stacey Wark Santolli, Ph.D. for your vulnerability, wisdom, and inspiration. A special thanks to Joanie Smith, Jerome Kirkland, CSCP MBA and the DE&I Council for organizing this event, and to Tim Ingle for skillfully guiding the conversation. 🙌 It was a meaningful reminder of the impact we can have when we listen deeply, learn from one another, and lead with intention — together. 🌍🤝🌸 #IWD2025 #AccelerateAction #OneECMS #InclusiveLeadership #CelebrateWomen #StrongerTogether
