Scope 1 & 2 emissions reduction in 2025 from 2022 baseline


Programs
Our road to net zero
We take the view that every ton counts and, to achieve our Scope 1 & 2 goal, we have focused our operational strategy around these pillars.
Facility emissions reduction
Identify opportunities to reduce direct emissions and improve energy efficiency while building processes that enable continuous improvement.

Scope 3 approach

We are focused on four categories to drive our Scope 3 emissions reductions.

Use of sold products: Improving the energy efficiency of our equipment, transitioning to anesthetic gases with lower global warming potential, and educating customers about the optimal use of the equipment.

Upstream transportation: Using lower-carbon transportation modes when practical, such as replacing short-haul flights with road transport, transitioning air freight to ocean, and looking for opportunities to load-share and source materials more locally.

Purchased goods and services: Collaborating with 70% of our largest suppliers by spend through the EcoVadis platform to reduce GHG emissions across our supply chain.

Business travel: Examining alternatives to short-haul business class flights, assessing more direct options to long-haul routes, and improving education and awareness.

Biodiversity

We strive to protect biodiversity in communities in which we operate.
