Let's now discover the competitive environment of the DSM Group with a detailed presentation of its main competitors. This knowledge of the two major groups most likely to take market share from this company is indeed essential for a good understanding of the challenges facing this company.
This company, formerly known as Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, is an American conglomerate known by the general public for some of its emblematic brands such as Scotch or Post-It. This company is specialized in performance materials.
Finally, the German chemical group BASF is one of the leaders in this sector worldwide. Its production site, located in Germany, covers more than 10 km2 and employs more than 34,000 people. Its activities include the development, testing, production and sale of several thousand different products.
Of course, the DSM Group also has a number of allies who help it to become more competitive, more profitable or more well-known through strategic partnerships. We would like to take a look at some of the most recent examples of these strategic partnerships.
The DSM Group has entered into a strategic partnership with the chemical company SABIC and UPM Biofuels, a producer of sustainable raw materials, in a project to reduce the environmental impact of Dyneema, the world's strongest fibre. This collaboration will result in Duneema's transition to biobased raw materials that take advantage of SABIC's revolutionary TRUCIRCLE solutions for certified renewable products. DSM is therefore committed to improving the ecological footprint of this material by moving towards a bio-based circular economy.
Another important partnership has been set up with the Suez group, another leader in the circular economy, as part of the transition to a more sustainable economy through collaboration across the value chain. To this end, Suez will take over the treatment and recovery of solvents used in the manufacturing process of premium Dyneema polyethylene fibres which are used by various industries including shipping, aviation, clothing or ballistics. This alliance was set up in 2007 and consisted of recycling the solvents used in the manufacturing process of these fibres. The waste treatment plant was built by Suez in the Netherlands to grind and dechip the fibres before regenerating the solvents, which are then reused with a high yield.
DSM has also established a partnership with Metex Noovista, the subsidiary of Metabolis Explorer or Metex, for the marketing of 1.3 propanediol or PDO cosmetic grade. This strategic collaboration on an international scale will allow the sale of the first 100% biobased cosmetic grade PDO manufactured in Europe with non-GMO raw materials. It is therefore an important step in DSM's long-term technical and performance ingredient development strategy and the extension of the group's natural product offering.
Finally, the latest partnership is with the company Avril for the production of a non-GMO rapeseed protein for human consumption. This protein is an alternative to meat and dairy products and will be produced in association by the two companies, in a production unit on the Saipol site built for this purpose near Dieppe.
DSM Group has several major shareholders that are worth knowing about. Indeed, 9.2% of the shares of this company belong to Capital Group Cos Inc, 3.7% to Europacific Growth Fund, 3.1% to The Vanguard Group, 3.1% to BlackRock Inc, 2% to Partisan Partners Limited Partnership and 1.9% to NN Group NV.
