Climate neutral healthcare

The healthcare sector generates 4,4% of the global carbon emissions. Consumption and production in the healthcare sector is based on using our natural environment and resources in a way that continues to have a destructive impact on the planet.

Our role in the value chain gives us the opportunity to impact sustainable consumption and production patterns. By managing and reducing our own footprint and transferring the same standards to our suppliers, we can, together with our customers, deliver circular and sustainable healthcare solutions.

• Emission reduction in operation, products and value chain in line with the Paris Agreement
