Sustainable development at Dasheng - balancing people, planet and profits
The chemical industry is a key sector for sustainable development. As an innovation driver for business and society, our industry plays its part in helping a growing world population achieve a better quality of life.
Dasheng has embraced sustainability, understanding it as an obligation towards people and society and as a strategy in which economic success is coupled with social equity and environmental responsibility. This principle of balancing ‘people, planet and profit’ forms the basis of our sustainability understanding.
Our products contribute towards a sustainable future, both directly and as the basis for innovations by our customers. Our conduct is rooted in the fundamental principles of protecting people and the environment. We strive for good and fair working conditions for our employees and for the service providers on our sites. This commitment is further demonstrated by our participation in the Responsible Care® initiative and in social partnership activities.
Cuidado responsable®
Responsible Care® is a voluntary commitment by the global chemical industry to drive continuous improvement and achieve excellence in Security and Safety, Health and Environmental (ELLA) performance.
Dasheng actively supports and participates in a number of key Responsible Care® initiatives and follows the respective guidelines:
1. We respect the general public’s need for transparency in connection with products, processes and activities, on the basis of a constructive approach.
2.In accordance with our product responsibility, we provide information about the safe transport, storage, use, recycling and disposal of our products. This applies in particular to buyers, processing enterprises and users.
3.We work continuously on extending our knowledge of products and production processes, in particular with respect to potential impacts on human health and the environment during all phases of the products’ life cycle.
4.We operate safe production plants. Should any risks endangering human health or the environment become recognisable, we will take immediate action as required. In doing so, we cooperate closely with competent authorities and inform the public.
5.We make available our knowledge and experience in the development of workable and effective laws, regulations and standards, con el objetivo de garantizar constantemente la protección de la salud humana y el medio ambiente.

Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de las Naciones Unidas
Apoyamos activamente los 17 Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) de las Naciones Unidas. Por lo tanto, nos centramos y evaluamos regularmente las áreas en las que podemos lograr el mayor impacto.
Estamos comprometidos a mejorar continuamente nuestras actividades a este respecto y aceptar las sugerencias de partes interesadas externas. Para ese fin, actualizamos continuamente tanto nuestros objetivos financieros como no financieros, así como nuestras actividades operacionales y programas estratégicos.
In particular those SDGs that focus on climate protection, industry and infrastructure, sustainable cities and responsible production play a vital role for us. Our products help save resources, for example through durable water pipe systems, and reduce CO2 emissions, for example by insulating buildings more efficiently.
We are an active member of VinylPlus®, the voluntary sustainable development programme of the European PVC industry and a strong promoter of the Sustainable Development Goals.
energy and emissions
Dasheng’s plants require a large amount of energy. We therefore do everything we can to optimize our operational efficiency and to minimize the environmental impact of our production processes. For this purpose, we have implemented Energy Management Systems according to the ISO 50001 standards on most of our sites. Expert teams ascertain the energy efficiency of the plants, determine the consumption status and improvement potentials, and create action plans.
Further projects to improve our energy efficiency are ongoing.
Dasheng aims to ensure environmental protection during all phases of its manufacturing processes by:
- Limiting as much as possible emissions and consequences of accidents that may impact the environment.
- Giving high attention to developing and implementing energy-saving technologies.
