DuPont Sustainable Solutions Becomes DSS+

DuPont Sustainable Solutions has been rebranded as DSS+ with effect from Feb. 28. After separating from parent DuPont in September 2019 in a spinoff backed by Swiss private equity group Gyrus Capital, the company became an independent consulting firm to industrial sectors such as chemicals, oil & gas, mining, metals and manufacturing.

Davide Vassallo, CEO of DSS+, said the new brand name “represents the exponential capability we have to help companies work safer and smarter, with purpose and impact.”

Since being spun out, DSS+ said it has evolved and enhanced its capabilities both through organic growth and three acquisitions to improve the breadth and depth of capabilities in operational excellence, sustainability and environmental, social & governance (ESG).

The acquisitions included Sofies Group last October, adding new intellectual property, methodologies, tools and capabilities in sustainability management, KKS advisors in July 2021, a leader in ESG with particular expertise in financing and investment, and global consulting firm Lodestone Partners in February 2020.

DSS+ said it has more than 1,000 professionals operating in 40 countries worldwide.
