Koninklijke DSM N.V. (DSM, also known as Royal DSM) is a Dutch multinational focused on nutrition, health and bioscience. The company develops and manufactures ingredients and solutions such as vitamins, nutritional lipids, enzymes, probiotics, specialty proteins, and aroma/taste components for applications in food and beverages, dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, animal nutrition, and personal care. Its capabilities are rooted in biotechnology and fermentation, supported by global R&D and manufacturing operations.
Founded in 1902 as Dutch State Mines, DSM evolved from bulk chemicals into specialty nutrition and bioscience, divesting its commodity and materials businesses over time. In 2023, DSM combined with Firmenich to form dsm-firmenich, broadening its reach in fragrance, taste and nutrition. The company is headquartered in the Netherlands and serves customers worldwide, with an emphasis on science-based product development and resource efficiency across its value chain.
