Conclusion by our CEO

As we conclude this 2025 ESG Report, we are proud of the progress we have achieved and, equally importantly, of the discipline with which we continue to strengthen our foundations. Sustainability at Denis Asia Pacific is not a communication exercise — it is an operational, cultural and strategic commitment embedded across our businesses.

The past year has been characterised by growth, transformation and consolidation. In a context of increased production volumes and evolving regulatory expectations, we have maintained our focus on responsible performance, transparency and long-term resilience.

Strengthening Our Environmental Foundations

Climate change remains one of the defining challenges of our time. In 2025, our total Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions reached 12,210 tCO₂e, reflecting higher production activity, while our emissions intensity improved from 0.68 to 0.60 tCO₂e per tonne of finished product. This demonstrates our ability to partially decouple growth from carbon impact through operational efficiency.

Energy management continues to be a core lever of our decarbonisation pathway. We have further structured our Energy Management System in alignment with ISO 50001 principles, enhanced steam system monitoring, deployed targeted efficiency projects and strengthened data governance. The initiatives implemented in 2025 correspond to 228 tCO₂e avoided during the year.

At the same time, our circularity strategy has entered a new phase. The Fish Protein Concentrate (FPC) project represents a concrete industrial transformation, enabling the recovery and valorisation of up to 99% of incoming by-product and reducing organic waste by approximately six tonnes per day once fully operational. With a RM 2.5 million investment and commissioning scheduled in 2026, this initiative reinforces both our environmental performance and the resilience of our value chain.

Water stewardship and waste management remain embedded within our ISO 14001-certified environmental management systems. In 2025, 95% of waste generated across our manufacturing sites was diverted from landfill, and no water-related regulatory incidents were recorded.

Governance and Integrity as Non-Negotiable Principles

Strong environmental performance must rest on equally strong governance. In 2025, we continued reinforcing our Ethics and Compliance framework through clear zero-tolerance policies covering corruption, modern slavery, human rights violations and illegal environmental practices.

Training and awareness remain central to our approach. To date, all staff have completed at least one anti-corruption training session and signed the corresponding pledge, and 89 risk-identified employees have completed anti-modern slavery e-learning. Our governance systems are continuously strengthened to align with evolving regulatory frameworks and stakeholder expectations.

Investing in Our People

Our people are at the heart of our performance and long-term sustainability. In 2025, our workforce comprised 1,435 employees across our operations. We remain committed to diversity and inclusion, with women representing 64% of our total workforce.

Health and safety continue to be a top operational priority. While we recorded 34 accidents in 2025, in a context of increased production intensity and operational reorganisation, we have reinforced preventive measures, strengthened root cause analysis processes and continued aligning our systems with ISO 45001 principles. Our Vietnam site maintained zero occupational accidents for the second consecutive year.

The Sustainable Office Competition once again illustrated the strength of our internal engagement. The number of initiatives nearly tripled in 2025, reflecting deeper integration of ESG values into everyday decision-making and local innovation across our offices.

A Commitment to Transparency and Continuous Improvement

This report reflects our commitment to transparent disclosure. We are aware that sustainability is not a destination but a continuous journey. Decarbonisation, circular economy integration, workforce development and governance strengthening require sustained investment, discipline and adaptability.

Looking Ahead

As we move forward, our priorities remain clear:

  • Continue reducing energy intensity and fuel dependence in line with our Net Zero roadmap.
  • Commit in 2026 to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), to set greenhouse gas reduction targets aligned with climate science and the goals of the Paris Agreement.
  • Commission and scale the Fish Protein Concentrate project.
  • Further strengthen safety performance and accident prevention.
  • Deepen supplier engagement on ethical and environmental standards.
  • Enhance data robustness and prepare progressively for future regulatory requirements.

In a rapidly evolving global environment, resilience is built through responsible management, operational excellence and strong values. At Denis Asia Pacific, ESG is not separate from our business strategy — it is an integral component of how we create sustainable value for our customers, employees, partners and communities.

I would like to thank all our teams across Australia, Brunei, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam for their dedication and commitment. The progress described in this report is the result of collective effort, discipline and shared responsibility.

We remain fully committed to advancing responsibly, transparently and pragmatically toward a more sustainable future.
