Engineering Materials

Renewable Energy

DSMs high-quality portfolio includes materials for a broad range of applications – both to meet the demands of existing energy companies, as well as enabling a future built on more sustainable energy.

Accelerating the shift to renewable energy

The global focus on transitioning to a low-carbon economy is driving the development of new technologies and innovative solutions. Scaling these innovations to create sustainable alternatives for fossil fuels is creating the need for advanced plastic materials that perform in a wide variety of conditions.

Our high-quality portfolio includes materials for a broad range of applications – both to meet the demands of existing energy companies, as well as enabling a future built on more sustainable energy. Our materials meet the high demands needed to set new standards in design, comfort and ease of use, as well as accelerating the quest to drastically cut energy use. As we move toward circular design thinking, hoping to capture and re-use plastics at the end of a component’s life, engineering plastics can play a leading role in creating a more sustainable product lifecycle.

With each customer, we combine our in-depth technology knowledge with close customer collaboration to develop new applications that answer the search for lighter, stronger and more durable materials. Our focus is always on helping our customers stay ahead of the curve, so they can lead the market through the use of cutting-edge technology, including high-value, specialty materials, and more advanced grades that demonstrate improved mechanical performance in the most demanding conditions.
