ESG Resources

Want to know our progress on sustainability? So do we. Here’s how we keep track.

Let’s be clear

We’re committed to transparency and accountability on every aspect of our performance – including sustainability. After all, sustainability is at the heart of all we do at dsm-firmenich. And in the wake of our merger, we're committed to surpassing the high standards we’ve already set.

Navigating the sea of global ESG ratings and benchmarks can be daunting. We strategically review and prioritize those we engage with each year, based on criteria such as stakeholder recognition and use, transparency of methodology, and provision of sufficient feedback for meaningful year-on-year improvement. Meanwhile, we advocate for the consolidation and standardization of these benchmarks to encourage broader corporate participation.

We're proud to be consistently rated as a (sector) leader in various ESG benchmarks, reflecting our responsible and sustainable practices and our commitment to people and planet alike. Plus, as a Supplier Ethical Data Exchange (Sedex) member, we look – and act – beyond our own business, to ensure that our supply chain lives up to the high standards we set ourselves.
