Case Study: BASF improves plant safety and communication with Ascom solutions

BASF improves plant communication across 330 staff with Ascom

BASF, a major chemical producer, faced a challenge in ensuring staff safety and improving communication at its large production site in Italy. The customer needed to integrate paging and VHF radio into a single system and extend coverage across the entire plant. To address this, BASF implemented an enterprise communication solution from Ascom.

Ascom's solution, which included DECT handsets and workflow communication software, unified communications and provided full site coverage. This resulted in faster response times, improved team coordination, and quicker interventions following equipment alarms. The measurable impacts highlighted by BASF include improved productivity, eliminated downtime, and enhanced staff safety due to features like man-down alerts and improved emergency drill coordination.
