Main Activities

DSM business groups are divided in Nutrition, Materials and Innovation Center. Nutrition comprises Animal Nutrition, Human Nutrition, Food and Beverage, and Care and Health. The Materials cluster comprises Engineering Materials and Protective Materials. [20] DSM innovation center is a science-based research center focusing on long-term innovations outside the scope of current mainstream business. [21] DSM specialises in fine chemistry and bioscience.

Government

DSM has royal status. [22] DSM did not receive NOW-support during corona times. [23]

Paris Agreement to Today

According to DSM, their scope 1 & 2 market-based GHG emissions improved by 25% compared to the 2016 baseline. [24] The year on year GHG efficiency improved 8,6% in 2020. [25] However, in the same report it is visible that scope 3 emissions have actually increased since 2019. [26]

Financial Results since 2015

This table shows the financial situation of DSM since 2015.

2021 [39] 9.2 billion EUR 1.68 billion EUR 421 million EUR [40]

Scandals and controversies

To be added.

Current Emissions

DSM total emissions in all scopes over 2020 were 13,2 mton CO2. [41] 1,24 megatonnes are in scope 1 and 2, 12 megatonnes is in scope 3. The goal for scope 3 is an intensity reduction of 28% by 2030. [42] DSM wants to improve energy efficiency by at least 1% annually until 2030. In 2020 energy efficiency has improved by 5,7%. [43]

Scope 1 & 2 market-based GHG emissions improved by 25% compared to the 2016 baseline. Total scope 1& 2 emissions were 1,24 million tons CO2eq in 2020. This was an increase in comparison to 2019 due to inorganic growth and increased production volumes. The year on year GHG efficiency improved 8,6% in 2020. [44] Scope 3 emissions rose in 2020 by 0,4 mton. This was due to increase in purchasing volume and a shift in more carbon-intense raw materials. [45]

DSM improved performance in volatile organic compound (voc’s) to air emission by 74% in 2020 [46]

Total emissions since 2015 ( in megatonnes CO2-eq.)
Year Scope 1 Scope 2 Scope 3 Total
2015 [47] 0.6 0.5 14.9 16
2016 [48] 1 0.5 19 20.5
2017 [49] 1.5 (1&2) Unknown 21 22.5
2018 [50] 1.23 (1&2) Unknown 11.3 12.55
2019 [51] 1.17 (1&2) Unknown 11.6 12.77
2020 [52] 1.24 (1&2) Unknown 12 13.24
2021 [53] 1,21 (1&2) Unknown 11.7 12.91

Despite the targets set, emissions have increased since 2015. In 2018, emissions for end of life treatment of products (scope 3) decreased drastically, without much explanation.

Climate Policy and Plans

DSM tries to decouple emissions from economic growth and is committed to reach NetZero GHG emissions across value chains by 2050. [54] DSM wants to improve energy efficiency by at least 1 percent per year. [55] Since 2019, business growth projects must be GHG-neutral or else be compensated within the same business. [56]

DSM has the ambition to cut 30 percent of absolute emissions by 2030 (vs. 2016, scope 1 and 2) and reduce value chain emission per ton of product by 28 percent by 2030 (vs. 2016, scope 3). [57] DSM plans to do this by improving their operations, enable customers and partners to deliver sustainable solutions and advocate for the future they believe in [58] Also, DSM plans to implement an internal carbon price of 50 euro’s per tonne CO2. [59] Through animal nutrition solutions DSM helps to reduce direct and indirect GHG emissions. [60]

DSM wants to apply an internal carbon taks of 50EU/t CO2eq to key investments, acquisitions and in management reporting. [61] DSM wants to purchase 75% of all its energy used by 2030 from renewable sources. [62]

DSM commits to five drivers of circularity in order to reduce their scope 3 GHG emissions. * Reduce use of critical resources * Replace scarce, hazardous and potentially harmful resources * Extend the lifetime of products * design for recyclability * recover waste streams [63]

DSM has set up a CO2REDUCE plan to tackle upstream emissions in the value chain. DSM recognises that only together with their partners they can reduce their scope 3 emissions, Currently, the CO2REDUCE plan includes alternative feedstock, sustainable products, supplier selection, energy efficiency, renewable energy, end-of-pipe solutions and circularity of the materials chain. [64]

Due Diligence

Keep the broader context in mind. Is the company integer when it comes to deforestation, palm oil, biodiversity, human rights etc etc? Be critical in the sources used here.

Conclusion

DSM is a dutch bio-chemical company specialising in health, nutrition and bioscience. DSM makes a profit of over 500 million euro’s yearly. Remuneration of top management is fairly higher than companies with similar revenu and profit numbers. The majority of emissions from DSM are in scope 3. DSM is invested in reducing emission numbers and has made notable progress in scope 1 & 2. DSM is commited to the targets in the Paris Agreement of 2015 but its scope 1, 2 and 3 targets fall short of 45% reduction by 2030 and its total emissions have risen between 2019 and 2020 instead of following a sharp reduction path that is needed to keep in line with the Paris Agreement.
