    While climate finance dominated headlines at COP29, food and agriculture continued to be recognized as critical drivers of climate action. 🌾 The message was clear: achieving global climate goals isn’t possible without addressing the way we produce and consume food. Our very own Mark van Nieuwland contributed to this critical dialogue, showcasing how sustainable innovations like Bovaer®, our methane-reducing feed additive, are driving measurable impact. 🐄 With just five harvests remaining until 2030, the urgency has never been greater. Innovation, collaboration, and relentless commitment will be essential to accelerating progress. What role do you see for food and agriculture in addressing climate change? Let’s keep the conversation going. 👇 #webringprogresstolife #COP29 #climateaction

    What does autumn smell like to you? 🍁🍂 For Principal Perfumer Frank Voelkl, it’s the nutty scent of drying leaves. Our Smell-The-Taste™ (STT) technology transforms tastes into fragrances, while the Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) process preserves natural profiles of ingredients for high-purity extracts. The smell of autumn is captured in our WALNUT STT, a cozy blend of freshly cracked walnut, salty undertones, and rich nutty warmth, while our Vetiver SFE reveals the woody, earthy, and smoky olfactive profile of this season. 🥰 #webringprogresstolife #finefragrance #fallscents dsm-firmenich Perfumery & Ingredients

    What do consumers want from fragrances in 2025? Welcome to the latest edition of our NewNextNow barometer! 😍 We asked 12,000 consumers around the world how scent helps them thrive – and the answer is powerful. Fragrance is no longer a nice-to-have, it is perceived as a distinct, stand-alone benefit in a product. Feeling great has become a value proposition as consumers seek positivity on supermarket shelves. This change opens exciting possibilities for brands to create emotions-led products that blend fragrance benefits with everyday essentials. 🌸 Read more: https://bit.ly/3OqhRi5 #shapethefuture #newnextnow #fragrance

    #DidYouKnow that yogurt has been enjoyed over 5,000 years? 🤯 Ancient Mesopotamians found that storing milk in clay pots transformed it into a thick, tangy, longer-lasting product. Today, from tzatziki to kefir and dahi, yogurt is a staple in every corner of the globe. To stand out in a highly competitive market, yogurt brands prioritize processing and quality. Our Delvo® Fresh Pioneer culture solutions ensure excellent pH stability, giving you flexible production and lasting creaminess with low post-acidification. 😋 Discover our secret to thick and creamy yogurt that consumers love to get their spoons into: https://bit.ly/3O6goh4 #owntheoutcome
