Our reason for being
We design and deliver bio-based* ingredients that add value to our customers’ products and enable them to meet market demands. Using nature’s own materials, science and the knowledge of our employees we turn renewable and natural raw materials into sustainable solutions that allow everybody to live a healthier, safer and more convenient life while reducing the use of nature’s resources.

We believe in leadership and in making Danisco’s standards the highest in our industry. We believe that open dialogue and shared knowledge across all borders enable us to grow both as individuals and as a company.

And we believe that together we can set a future agenda of respect for nature, people and the planet we share.

Bio-based
We believe that in 20 years from now we will be living in a biobased economy, and Danisco is already geared to capture a substantial part of this growth. Today, we hold leading positions in several key product categories within food ingredients where health & nutrition is an important market driver, and our subsidiary Genencor is a growth engine of industrial biotech. Danisco’s key strength lies in our unique distribution and R&D platforms. Danisco has strong synergistic opportunities between its traditional ingredient business and its industrial biotech activities: For example, breakthroughs in enzymes open up to new types of health-oriented food solutions.

Vision, mission and strategy
Danisco’s mission is to help our customers increase their competitiveness through innovative, sustainable and bio-based ingredient solutions that meet market demand for healthier and safer products. Danisco wants to be the fi rst choice provider of bio-based ingredients to industry globally, and our strategy is to create value through organic and acquisitive growth by leveraging and strengthening our market access, applications and technology platforms – and through talented and engaged people.

Sustainability
More than ever, sustainability makes up an integral part of Danisco’s strategy. It is crucial that we can continue to meet customer demand for raw material traceability, documenting sustainable production in all parts of the value chain and offer our employees a sustainable career with a balanced work life.
