Increasing biodiversity on our sites

 

Protecting nature is essential for business resilience and the future of healthcare. Biodiversity loss threatens the resources and ecosystem services that we all rely on. We aim to reduce our impact on nature by managing and restoring biodiversity on manufacturing sites and reducing water withdrawal. These actions ensure we meet growing customer and investor expectations. Our actions further reinforce our position as a company that conducts responsible business.
