DGE turns 25 years old!
DGE Smart Specialty Chemicals was founded in 1996 as Distributors Group Europe bv in the Netherlands. So, we are turning 25 this year! Time flies when you do what you are passionate about!
Mascherpa is one of the founding partners who first saw how DGE’s unique model could revolutionize chemical distribution
And today we want to thank all the people who have shared so much passion, from the founders of our company to our current amazing team of professionals. Our achievements are only the result of the effort of each person within this large family.
In these 25 years DGE has grown in terms of revenue, coverage, organization and services, but we maintain the same entrepreneurial and maverick spirit that brought us here.
Nowadays, DGE is a pure player dedicated to the marketing and distribution of high-quality specialty chemical finished products in 30 countries. With more than 200 technical sales professionals in the market, we offer the most compelling local presence.
Over the years, we have contracted with every single global chemical leader in the following categories: Lubricants; Adhesives and Sealants; and Encapsulants and Electronic Protection.
Our European digital platform and advanced logistics model provide “state-of-the-art” services and operational facilities that enable our customers to improve their business performance. Locally, end customers benefit from the best quality standards in terms of technical support, storage, delivery, and after-sales operations.
From a marketing perspective, “DGE Analytics,” our market analysis program, provides our customers, shareholders and members with up-to-date and relevant analyses for better access to more than 80,000 customers across Europe.
The organization grows. Our values remain
DGE’s core values, based on transparency and integrity, have been fundamental along the way in establishing fruitful and lasting relationships with all our stakeholders. Today more than ever we strengthen our engagement with those.
INTEGRITY… in all our actions
TRANSPARENCY–about our business model.
INNOVATION… to embrace and lead change
WINNING SPIRIT… as a source of value creation for our stakeholders
