Home Who we are Sustainability

Sustainability

We see ourselves as a business based on trust and characterised by a strong sense of responsibility.

At Pharmacosmos, we are dedicated to operating responsibly across all facets of our business. A strong sense of responsibility is the basis for our ambitions as a corporate citizen and our approach to sustainability.

Our approach to sustainability

We work to protect and preserve the environment as part of our daily business operations, for example, by avoiding the use of organic solvents and cyanide traditionally used in our industry. We ensure that the environmental impact of our activities is kept to a minimum.

We focus on protecting people within our communities and work to ensure a safe and healthy working environment across all locations and functions. Our people—talented and skilled—are our most important asset at Pharmacosmos. We do not compromise on occupational health or safety.

We earn the trust and respect of patients, partners, and communities by upholding integrity and ensuring compliance. Our values—People Driven, Committed to Quality, and Innovation for Better Lives—provide us with clear guidance for our professional behavior.

We engage with partners and stakeholders, building and drawing from mutual expertise and resources to transform how iron deficiency anaemia is prevented and treated in humans and animals.
