Our Ambition to become Net Positive
At CSM Ingredients each and every one of us plays a role in supporting our vision to become Net Positive.
Through our "Thrive for Impact" plan, we are committed to making positive contributions to the Planet and People thanks to our Products.
Our “Thrive for Impact” plan, aligned with three UN Sustainable Development Goals, provides CSM Ingredients with a clear roadmap to respond to some of the world’s most pressing issues.
Through our three pillars - People, Planet and Product - we aim to address the dimensions of planet health, humanity well-being and ingredient wealth.
To have a positive impact on the well-being of our entire ecosystem, from our employees to our external communities.
To implement processes designed to prevent, manage, and mitigate environmental and climate impacts across our operations and value chain.
To develop products which are good for both people and the planet, focusing on healthy, nutritious and sustainable product innovations.
