For over five generations, Dingemans has produced high-quality malts while reducing environmental impact through responsible sourcing, energy efficiency and continuous process innovation.
Over the past year, we strengthened our sustainability performance while continuing to invest in efficient, future-proof malt production. Two combined heat and power units supplied between 50% and 87% of the company’s electricity needs, complemented by on-site solar generation and ongoing energy-saving measures. Our newer malting facility delivered a 50% reduction in water consumption, a crucial improvement given the increased importance of water conservation.
We also advanced sustainable sourcing: 80–90% of our barley is now SAI-certified, and organic barley represents around 7% of our purchases. Additionally, we participated in regenerative and low-carbon barley programmes that support upstream emission reductions.
Circular principles remain embedded in our operations, with side streams valorised into animal feed, biogas production and soil improvement. As we prepare a full climate transition plan for 2027, these achievements reinforce our long-term commitment to responsible growth, operational resilience and continued support for breweries worldwide.
Dingemans is a fifth-generation Belgian family malthouse producing a comprehensive range of kilned, caramelised, roasted, specialty and organic malts for breweries and food manufacturers around the world. Since 1875, Belgian brewers—including producers of Trappist, Lambic and abbey beers—have relied on our malts for consistency, flavour and performance. Today, our products reach international brewers while we continue integrating sustainability through energy efficiency, responsible sourcing, circularity, and rigorous ISO-certified food-safety systems.
We craft premium malts rooted in tradition and elevated by responsible, future-ready production.
Our mission is to supply breweries and food manufacturers with high-quality, reliable malts produced through responsible sourcing and efficient, safe operations. This includes maintaining long-term relationships with grain cooperatives, sourcing SAI-certified and organic barley, investing in energy-efficient systems, and upholding strict laboratory and food-safety controls. Every batch reflects our commitment to quality, transparency and sustainability.
A resilient malt supply chain built on innovation, sustainability and long-term partnerships.
We aim to build a resilient malt value chain powered by lower-emission energy, advanced food-safety management, and sustainable farming practices. This includes further reducing emissions through future renewable heat technologies, advancing regenerative barley programmes, and continuing responsible water use in a high-stress region. Our planned climate transition plan, expected by end of 2027, will guide these long-term ambitions.
Producing kilned, caramelised, roasted, specialty and organic malts for global B2B markets.
Our activities span the full malting process, from sourcing barley through a network of long-term European partners to producing a wide range of malt types used by breweries, millers and food manufacturers. With over 80–90% SAI-certified barley and a growing BIO range, we combine technical expertise with certified sourcing, extensive quality control, and customer-focused service across domestic and international markets.
Mouterij Dingemans successfully passed the FSSC 22000 audit, achieving an internationally recognised food-safety certification that covers the malting process from raw-material intake through to final dispatch. This certification reinforces the company’s commitment to structured food-safety management, consistent product quality and reliability for breweries and food manufacturers worldwide.
Certified by TÜV NORD INTEGRA, this certification covers the organic production of selected malts. It confirms full compliance with EU organic regulations across production, handling and traceability. (Certification date: 2024-02-28)
ISO 22000:2018 certification confirms that Dingemans has a structured food-safety management system addressing client expectations, employee training, allergen information, and integration of climate considerations. (Certification date: 2024-06-14)
The company voluntarily participates in the Belgian Energy Policy Agreement (EBO), whose implementation is externally verified by the VBBV verification bureau. This provides independent oversight of energy-efficiency and climate-related measures.
