Together with the Eco Impact Assessment tool under Refinity brand, users can use reliable data and real-life measurements from the body shops, helping them increase their profitability and improve their ecological footprint at the same time. ​ The assessment results in a corporate carbon footprint and allows for benchmarking with other body shops. By comparing results, the tool helps define measures to improve performance and reduce environmental impact,” said Dr. Rahel Reichmann, Head of Sustainability Automotive Refinish Coatings at BASF.​

Paired with the new PCF solution, the ecosystem enables:
Optimized processes
Lower emissions
Higher efficiency and the highest eco‑efficiency
