What is Green DME? DME made from non-fossil raw materials is called Green DME. The basis for Green DME is Green Methanol. Organic waste from crops or household waste can be turned into Methanol. This organic/household waste cannot be used in the food value chain or recycled into new materials Chemically, Green DME is equal to Fossil DME: 99. 99% pure. The environmental impact is 40% less CO 2 and 100% non-fossil. Replacing Propellants with Green DME will lead to up to 300% reduction in Carbon emission. 6

Can Green DME support your Green ambition? There is no chemical difference between Green DME and fossil DME, easily substituted. Consumers are becoming more socially conscious and willing to pay more for green products. Fossil DME has almost half the CO 2 footprint of traditional propellants Green DME can reduce the Co 2 footprint by 3 times versus traditional propellants Green DME can play a key role in achieving Green New deal and Corporate sustainability targets for aerosols 11
