DIC Corporation was named a Supplier Engagement Leader, the highest possible rating, in the 2025 Supplier Engagement Assessment (SEA) conducted by the CDP. 

This is the first time DIC has earned SEA Leader status.

CDP’s SEA uses questionnaires to assess participating companies’ climate change initiatives across their supply chains in five scoring categories: governance and business strategy, targets, Scope 3 emissions, risk management processes and supplier engagement. 

Under the DIC Group Universal Purchasing Policy, which guides its global supply chain management, the DIC Group has adopted environment-friendly purchasing practices. 

Guided by this policy, the Group conducts supplier assessments as part of its sustainable procurement efforts and, based on the results thereof, engages with its suppliers by requesting and providing support for improvements. 

Recognition of these and other efforts led to the Group receiving the highest rating in the 2025 SEA.
