Technology
Our technological credentials are impressive. Over a period spanning half a century, DSM has succeeded in mastering a broad array of chemical technologies that can now be used separately or in combinations to develop new products with improved properties, bringing desirable benefits to our customers.
Together with our customers we have realized innovative new ways to reduce the amount of solvents used or enable industries to move to safe waterborne alternatives - all without compromising on coating performance. Our technology has ensured that plastic goods and wooden furniture can now be coated with waterborne technology in tough durable finishes that resist everyday scratches and scrapes. This is now also possible by powder coating resins that can be cured at lower temperatures, with the significant added benefit – factory application requires less energy. We’ve the broadest range of UV curing products in the world. Sustainable technology that speeds up the drying process, so a painter for example can apply a second coat without waiting. In many ways our technology is making a difference to products, our planet and people’s lives.
