Armed with a purpose and mission to create brighter lives for people today and coming generations, the Royal DSM — a global science-based company active in health, nutrition and materials- wants to contribute to a more sustainable world.

"Our definition of sustainability means simultaneously pursuing economic performance, environmental quality and social responsibility. We thus strive to create value on the three dimensions of `people, planet and profit;" states Vivek Chaturvedi, Country Manager at DSM Advanced Solar. In the race to develop more profitable solar power, DSM's wing of material solutions for photovoltaic (PV) modules (from coatings to backsheets) delivers higher solar efficiency for longer, benefitting people, planet — and profit.

In February 2017, DSM acquired Sunshine, a Chinese manufacturer of innovative high-performance PV backsheets based on co-extrusion technology. It has now become part of DSM, the leading player in anti-reflective and anti-soiling coatings. With the addition of the fluorine-free backsheet to its portfolio, the company is more than ready to use all its innovative power and expertise in materials science to make a significant impact on the solar industry and take it to the next level.
