1) “Cradle to grave” sustainability analysis and quantification:
BASF’s eco-efficiency analysis approach is a unique, widely acknowledged and independently certified tool for measuring the sustainable development of products and production processes from start to finish.
2) Traceability platform:
S.E.T. includes an Internet-based traceability platform used by participating business partners of BASF in the supply chain. This helps ensure transparency of the entire consumer goods value chain (whole-chain traceability).
S.E.T. particularly targets manufacturers of foods, beverages, and dietary supplements, as well as producers and processors of meat and fish. Premixers, producers of compound feed and base mixes can also benefit.

Sustainability,
eco-efficiency, and
traceability: these three
values safeguard our
future, allow us to use the
earth’s resources in
the most ecological and
economical way, and make
the value chain
transparent.”

Barcan, S.E.T. Manager for BASF
in North and South America as
well as in Asia Pacific
“Most companies
focus on internal
sustainability
measurements. Their results
are focused on internal
product sustainability
improvements. By
comparison, S.E.T. is
oriented toward consumer
products and looks at the
entire value chain while
combining horizontal
standards. S.E.T. creates
an umbrella for
comprehensive product
sustainability
management.”
