About Us

Technical Leadership
DSM Desotech is no newcomer to UV-curable materials development.  
Our researchers first began exploring applications for the technology in
1964, when it was still an emerging science yet to be tapped to its
fullest potential.

Today, more than 40 years since we began, DSM Desotech is not only
recognized as the world's leading supplier of UV-curable fiber optic
materials, but our expertise in UV materials development has earned
us a trusted reputation in other markets where we explore exciting new
applications for this technology.

DSM Desotech currently holds more than 120 U.S. patents in UV curable
technology.  Desotech patents have also been granted in Europe, Asia,
Australia and Canada.

Long-Term Partnerships
DSM Desotech believes in building long-term relationships.  Many of
the customers who first partnered with us more than two decades ago to
create "industry first" materials are the same customers we continue to
work with today.  The success of our partnerships is rooted in commitment:  
to understanding our customers' individual needs, anticipating future
requirements and designing innovative new materials that will ensure
their success in a competitive marketplace.

Global Network
DSM Desotech has established a global network that makes it easy to
do business with us from just about anywhere.  Our research and
