Environmental challenges have never been more critical or more urgent than they are today. That’s why we have committed to net zero emissions across our entire value chain by 2045 at the latest.

Growing consumption, industrialisation, and urbanisation threaten not only the sustainability of the environment we live in, but also the health of people around the world.

Every year, we use billions of litres of water and large amounts of energy and resources to manufacture medicines. We distribute hundreds of millions of vials and injection pens to people who need them, and while our products are made of high-quality materials, most of them end up in a landfill after use.

This puts us at the frontline of some of the biggest environmental issues: climate change, water and resource scarcity, pollution, and plastic waste. Our CO₂ emissions continue to rise. As 2045 approaches, we have set a near-term target to reduce our Scope 3 CO₂ emissions by 33% by 2033 compared to 2024. An important step to achieve our greater net zero commitment.

To lead the way and be at the forefront of change, we have taken a bold, broad, company-wide approach to solving environmental issues – with the ultimate aspiration to have zero environmental impact.
