Excellence, our distinction in products and services
Quality and excellence are fundamental pillars of our activity. We work to ensure that all our products meet the highest standards through comprehensive monitoring of every stage of the process, from the selection of raw materials to delivery to the end customer.
Our production processes and operations are subject to rigorous internal and external controls, ensuring quality, food safety and compliance with the main international standards and certifications. This approach enables us to offer reliable and consistent products, aligned with consumers' expectations and our commitment to continuous improvement.
Product innovations
During 2025, we continued to expand and strengthen our portfolio with new proposals adapted to consumer trends and market needs. Among the main milestones of the year, the incorporation of Nestea stands out, as well as the launch of Turia 0.0, expanding our non-alcoholic range; the return of emblematic references such as Turia Stark; and the development of special editions such as Cervezas Victoria x Andrés Iniesta. At the same time, we have reinforced our presence in new categories with initiatives such as the launch of Zeta Smash Burger and the integration of A Padaria Portuguesa into the Group.
These developments reflect our ability to evolve our offering, adapt to new consumption contexts and respond to customer needs, while maintaining the quality standards that define us.
- TERRITORY
Circular use of resources and management of raw materials and materials
At Damm, we continue to make progress in the incorporation of recycled and recyclable materials, the promotion of eco-design solutions, and the consolidation of systems for the reuse and return of packaging, such as our returnable packaging system or the Beer Drive model, which optimises logistics in the hospitality industry.
We also develop initiatives aimed at improving the collection and recycling of materials, such as can compactors in coastal areas. In parallel, we promote the use of certified and sustainable materials, as well as the optimisation of resource use across our production processes.
100% 65% of Damm’s packaging is recyclable of beer packaging is returnable Circularity of waste and reduction of food waste
At Damm, we work to minimise waste generation and maximise its recovery by integrating circular economy criteria into our production processes. We are committed to a model in which waste is transformed into new resources, reducing its impact and promoting its reuse.
Within this framework, we implement waste circularity initiatives focused on the recovery of waste and by-products, such as the use of bagasse and yeast for agricultural or industrial purposes, as well as continuous improvement of waste management and separation across our facilities. We also promote actions to reduce food waste, supporting a model based on the efficient use of resources and the reduction of waste throughout the value chain.
90% of waste recovered at breweries, water and soft drink plants Water footprint
Water is an essential resource for our activity and a key element in our production processes. For this reason, we work to optimise its use and ensure responsible management throughout the entire value chain, from origin to consumption.
In this context, we promote initiatives aimed at reducing water consumption and continuously improving water efficiency in our facilities. We also carry out the monitoring and measurement of the water footprint, with plants such as El Prat de Llobregat, Estrella de Levante and Maltería La Moravia certified by the Water Footprint Network. We apply standards and certifications such as ISO 14046 and the EsAgua Platinum seal, which recognise our responsible management of this resource.
4.26 hl of water per hl of beer packaged in 2025 Fighting climate change
In 2025, we continued to make progress in energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy, promoting initiatives to reduce emissions. In this context, we reinforced our participation in the international Lean & Green programme and made further progress in the management of our carbon footprint, obtaining recognitions such as the "Calculo y Reduzco" seal from MITECO, contributing to the decarbonisation of our activity.

With the aim of expanding our positive environmental impact, at Damm we promote biodiversity protection projects in collaboration with scientific and local organisations, while engaging our people in environmental awareness and conservation initiatives.
In 2025, we developed initiatives aimed at ecosystem restoration and the recovery of species, such as the reintroduction of brown algae in the Cap de Creus Natural Park and the continuation of conservation projects for species such as the ferreret (Majorcan midwife toad) and fartet (Mediterranean fish). We also continue to promote actions to restore fauna and habitats, including crayfish repopulation and sea turtle release programmes, alongside projects promoted by the Estrella de Levante Foundation for the protection of the Mar Menor and the enhancement of biodiversity in its surrounding area.
Committed suppliers and responsible purchasing
At Damm, we work to integrate sustainability criteria throughout our value chain, collaborating with supplier companies that share our commitment to quality, responsibility and respect for the environment.
In this context, we promote responsible purchasing practices that incorporate environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria, encouraging the use of certified raw materials and materials and ensuring that our suppliers comply with sustainability standards. In 2025, we further consolidated our sustainable procurement strategy, strengthening traceability, quality and the reduction of emissions at source, through initiatives that support a more transparent, efficient and decarbonised supply chain.
- IMPROVE
Providing value to our customers
Over the last decade, we have promoted more than 250 technological projects, transforming our operating model and consolidating a culture focused on innovation. Our aim is to offer solutions that provide added value to our customers, adapting to their needs and supporting them in the evolution of their businesses.
In this regard, we promote initiatives aimed at improving the customer experience and optimising business management, such as the Segunda Vida Terrazas (Terrace Second Life) project, which enables the recovery and reuse of hospitality furniture, and digital tools such as Bar Manager, which facilitate the day-to-day management of establishments and strengthen our relationship with our customers.

Bar ManagerInnovation and development
We were recognised as the most innovative brewery in Spain in 2025, according to the Spanish Innovation Index (IEI). In addition, we invested €10.9 million in research, development and technological innovation, product development and digital transformation.
We continue to strengthen our commitment to innovation at origin through projects such as the development of Mediterranean hops in Prades, a pioneering model that integrates agronomic innovation, environmental protection and process digitalisation. This initiative enhances the quality and traceability of raw materials, while contributing to the resilience of crops to climate change and to the development of rural environments through collaboration with farmers and local stakeholders.
Data and AI transformation and innovation
We are committed to becoming a data-driven company and, to this end, in 2025 we created the hub IAmm to promote the use of data and artificial intelligence across the organisation. We also continue to foster open innovation through initiatives such as LAB1876 and the development of technological solutions for business and Horeca channels. These initiatives position Damm as an innovative, data-driven organisation, capable of anticipating trends and advancing its digital transformation.
