BTC Europe GmbH
BTC Europe GmbH is BASF's European sales organisation for small and medium-sized customers focused on specialty chemicals.
The history of BTC began in 1969, when the former "Tensid-Chemie Vertriebsgesellschaft mbH" was founded in Germany. The company was created with a view to marketing surfactants and chelating agents focusing primarily on small and medium-sized customers. Ten years later, BASF became the sole shareholder of Tensid-Chemie. It was the beginning of a successful business and the start of a thriving relationship between BASF and its European distribution company. Today, BTC operates in 10 Sales Offices across Europe and provides 17,000 customers from over 30 industries with tailor-made solutions.
