ESG Strategy
2022 saw the approval of our ESG Strategy, a key milestone in the development of the “ESG Strategy” section of our Strategic plan, establishing a roadmap for sustainability in the coming years.
The set of measures included in the strategy fall into 7 groups:
- Good governance and Ethics
- Product innovation
- People
- Commitment to the health system
- Supply chain
- Environmental management
- Social contribution
Every year we disclose our sustainability performance through our Statement of Non-Financial Information. This means that our stakeholders have all the information they need about our performance and our progress with our ESG Strategy.
The new pharmaceutical production plant in Derio (Bizkaia) has LEED GOLD “Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design” certification.
What will be our main pharmaceutical plant has become a benchmark in terms of energy efficiency and carbon emissions reduction, creating a healthier and safer place for its occupants.
Notable aspects of the sustainability measures considered in the design are:
- Installation of renewable energy generation systems (photovoltaic panels).
- Installation of green roofs.
- High performance hot water generation systems (heat pumps).
- Low consumption lighting systems (LED lights) with automatic operation management.
- Insulation systems better than required by regulations to minimise losses.
