3 Sustainable Growth Areas Three key areas in which we accelerate sustainable markets

4 Sustainable Growth Area I: Nutrition The single largest contributor to disease in the world 37 % of the world s adult population is overweight 14 % overweight or obese children and adolescents worldwide Without the right food in the first 1000 days of life, a child suffers from stunting 40 % of children in poor countries have their growth stunted 0 countries succeeded in decreasing obesity in the last 33 years 62 % of the world s obese living in developing countries < lack of proper nutrients stops the brain from developing properly < malnourished are less able to learn causing them to have lower earnings later in life

5 Sustainable Growth Area I: Nutrition What do we aim for? Health, comfort, transparency, traceability and guiltfree consumption both in developing & developed countries Health: Nutritious & tasty food, heart and eye-health Comfort & well-being: Great taste and texture experience Transparency: Traceability of ingredients, understand impact in supply chains Aspirational, affordable and available nutritional products in developing countries Aspirational: Marketing effort to make it aspirational Affordable: Increasing role of a responsible food processing industry Available: Reduce producer consumer distance

6 Sustainable Growth Area II: Climate Change & Renewable Energy Affecting people (especially the most vulnerable) and nature Without action, climate change could result in 100 million additional people living in poverty by 2030 (World Bank, 2015)

7 Sustainable Growth Area II: Climate Change & Renewable Energy What do we aim for? Reducing our own footprint Realize 40-45% GHG efficiency improvement via energy efficiency, 50% renewable purchased electricity and DSM applies an internal carbon price for large capital investments as of Enabling a low carbon economy Brighter Living Solutions that help to reduce Green House Gas emissions across the value chain. Advocating climate action Creating markets in which low-carbon products thrive, with a focus on renewable energy and carbon pricing.

8 Sustainable Growth Area III: Circular & Bio-based economy The world demands more value from the resources available Waste distribution 33.5 % Construction 29.8 % Mining and quarrying 9.8 % Manufacturing 2598 M tons of waste in EU-28 in 2014 Volatile priced resources influence economic and societal stability Valuable materials are leaking from our economies 8.1 % Households 3.7 % Energy 15 % Other economic activities

9 Sustainable Growth Area III: Circular & Bio-Based Economy What do we aim for? Reduce critical resource use Ex: Use less resources while delivering the same contribution to the economy Replace scarce/ toxic resources Ex: Replacing scarce, toxic and polluting resources with renewable ones Extend product lifetime Ex: extending the time and added value of materials in the economy Enable recycling Ex: Enabling the retrieval of materials Recover organic waste streams Ex: Using organic waste streams as input for new application with the highest possible value

10 Through our Sustainable Growth Areas we focus on 5 different Sustainable Development Goals NUTRITION CLIMATE CHANGE & ENERGY CIRCULAR & BIO- BASED ECONOMY

11 DSM Sustainability Strategy Focused on delivering science-based, sustainable and scalable solutions that transform markets

17 Summary DSM is driving sustainability across its operations as well as its current and future product portfolio, while engaging in targeted advocacy to enable both DSM has chosen three Sustainable Growth Areas to focus its efforts on: Nutrition, Climate Change & Energy, and Circular & Bio-based Economy. With this focus DSM contributes to several Sustainable Development Goals, in particular SDGs 2, 3, 7, 12 and 13. Brighter Living Solutions are products and innovations that are measurably better than mainstream reference solutions for planet and people. Our Sustainability Strategy is based upon securing its sustainable operations and workforce, using Sustainability as a growth driver, and driving market transformation with selected partners in the three growth areas.

18 Annexes Examples of Brighter Living Solutions

19 Dyneema heavy marine ropes Societal challenge The marine industry is one of the larger contributors to GHG emissions and it continuously explores ways to reduce for instance through improved the fuel efficiency by technical modification of existing ships. The weight of ropes contribute to the carbon footprint of transported products. DSM solution Dyneema is the world s strongest fiber. Ropes with Dyneema, are more durable, light enough for one to handle, cause less injuries, and deliver the lowest carbon footprint when measured by strength performance. People + & Eco+ Impact on the lives of people: Easier and safer handling of ropes due to the lightweight. Impact on the environment: Dyneema provides the lowest carbon footprint on a tenacity basis and as such is providing The greenest strength to customers and end users. Ropes made with Dyneema use significantly less material and last longer than alternative solutions resulting in an even lower carbon footprint over the lifetime of the ropes.

20 OatWell dietary fiber Societal challenge Consumers realize the importance of reducing the risks of cardiovascular diseases and controlling blood glucose levels. Worldwide healthcare costs related to cardiovascular diseases will increase 22% by 2030, when one in ten adults is expected to have diabetes. DSM solution Nutritional ingredient OatWell used in supplements, smoothies, breads, breakfast cereals, biscuits, snacks and many other products. People+ Impact on the lives of people: Reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases by helping to lower cholesterol levels and reduce peak blood glucose levels after a meal. Health Comfort & Well-being More information: well.html

21 Pack-Age packaging solution Societal challenge With an increasing population, pressure on resource efficient food production is growing. DSM solution Pack-Age, a cheese ripening solution, allows cheese producers to tackle waste, cost and environmental impact by avoiding the need to discard cheese. Eco+ Impact on the environment: Compared to conventionally coated and ripened cheese, Pack-Age customers see yield improvements of up to 10% through a combination of reduced moisture loss, lower wastage and reduced milk use. And since Pack-Age is clean label, no further ingredients are needed to preserve the cheese from mold during ripening. Resources More information: /pack-age.html

22 Uralac Ultra coatings Societal challenge Solvent-borne coatings are responsible for 21% of the global non methane Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emission, causing a significant environmental and health impact. Additionally, the Carbon footprint of these solvent borne coatings is high compared to available alternatives. DSM solution Uralac Ultra is a 100% solid powder technology used for coatings on wooden furniture that is exposed to heavy-duty use, like bathrooms, children s and kitchen furniture. Brighter Living Solution Impact on environment: Uralac Ultra does not contribute to the global VOC emission. In addition, the carbon footprint of the coating in the final application is 75% lower than solvent borne coatings. Impact on lives of people: Uralac Ultra contains no toxic components and therefore safe in use during and after applying. More information: Resources Emissions Health Energy
