At Oncopeptides we continually strive to minimize the environmental impact of our own operations and those of our suppliers. Our Environmental Policy, adopted in 2017 and which all employees are expected to follow, states that environmental impact should be part of the company’s decision-making processes and that our products should not consume more natural resources than necessary. We strive to prevent pollution, reduce carbon emissions, and work actively to minimize waste and energy and water use.
We will continue to improve the transparency of our environmental initiatives and performance and encourage our suppliers and contractors to align with our environmental standards and transparency through contractual obligations and supplier agreements. At a company level and on an individual level, we will continue to make decisions that minimize our environmental impact.
Our environmental responsibility
We know that environmental issues are likely to become increasingly important and a potential differentiator.
In our supply chain, we continue to work with Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs) on their management of environmental impacts and screen suppliers before working with them.
Therefore, we focus on and select suppliers, CMOs and other vendors based in countries where regulatory standards are similar to those in Sweden.
Environmental issues in our operations
Oncopeptides operates in a highly regulated space, where environmental impacts are tightly controlled. However, we continue to improve our understanding of our environmental footprint and thereby reduce it further.
Following the pandemic we have adopted a more flexible approach to working from home. This reduces emissions in terms of less people travelling to and from the office.
