As Dimexon publishes its 2026 ESG report, Crafted with Transparency, our CEO Rajiv Mehta and group director Vishal Mehta reflect on how the company’s focus on ESG influenced every facet of our business last year – and will continue to do so in the years to come
As Dimexon marks 60 years in business and we publish our 2026 ESG report, Crafted with Transparency, we are continuing to strengthen our foundations through purpose-led progress, operational excellence and long-term partnerships built on trust.
In 2025, Dimexon cut absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% against our 2019 baseline and submitted near-term and net zero targets to the SBTi. As we mark 60 years in diamonds and 50 years as a De Beers Group Sightholder, these results reflect how performance and responsibility now move together across everything we do.
In an industry defined by traceability, transparency and trust, we see evolving regulations and supply chain expectations not as compliance burdens, but as opportunities to strengthen accountability, resilience and long-term stakeholder confidence.
Integrity defines our diamonds
Product integrity remains one of Dimexon’s strongest differentiators. In 2025, we strengthened transparency with key customers through Infinitrace, our proprietary traceability reporting system.
Infinitrace shares origin insights and key ESG metrics – including gender equality, Zero Waste to Landfill status, and Scope 1 and 2 emissions – for the melee diamonds we supply. Built on our SAP backbone and complemented by our new Salesforce-powered CRM platform, it provides auditable, system-verified traceability from origin through to assurance, reinforcing end-to-end supply chain accountability.
Advancing climate and environmental stewardship
Our environmental priorities – energy, emissions, waste and water – are addressed through targeted initiatives that support long-term resource efficiency and resilience.
We have aligned our climate strategy with the Science Based Targets initiative, submitting both near-term and net-zero targets under the SBTi Corporate Net-Zero Standard across Scope 1, 2 and relevant Scope 3 emissions. We also progressed our Nature Strategy and Roadmap, building on the biodiversity assessment conducted as part of our Watch & Jewellery Initiative 2030 commitment.
Empowering people, strengthening communities
Our people remain central to responsible growth. In 2025, our Coimbatore facility onboarded 250 undergraduate trainees, delivering approximately 18,000 training days. Our maiden employee engagement survey achieved a 96% response rate, generating insights now guiding initiatives across career visibility, recognition and collaboration.
Diversity, inclusion and workplace dignity are embedded throughout our policies and employment frameworks, covering gender equality, disability inclusion, and prevention of harassment. Beyond our workforce, community initiatives focused on education, healthcare and women’s empowerment continue to support long-term social mobility in the regions where we operate.
Setting the standard for responsible business
Strong governance underpins our long-term credibility. During the year, we formalised a CXO-led governance structure, strengthening executive accountability and strategic coordination.
Our commitment to responsible sourcing was reaffirmed through the successful three years RJC recertification, our continued De Beers Group Sightholder status, and our membership of the World Diamond Council since the inception of the Kimberley Process in 2003.
Positioning for the future
Responsibility continues to guide every decision at Dimexon. As we pursue our growth ambitions and expand into key markets, we remain focused on advancing sustainable luxury through carbon reduction, technology-enabled provenance and stronger traceability across the value chain. We thank our stakeholders for their continued trust as we build a more responsible and resilient future for our industry.
