Process
Chemical synthesis corresponds to the construction of complex chemical compounds from simpler ones. Our R&D follows the principles of Green chemistry whenever possible.
History
In 1965, dsm-firmenich’s team analyzed the Bulgarian rose essence, concluding in the discovery of not only the first rose ketones but how to synthetize them. Their work is still widely recognized as a key discovery process for our industry.
