One of the lowest carbon footprints in the industry
VERDOT has been collecting carbon emissions data since 2014. As a pioneer in sustainability, we have monitored, evaluated and reduced our carbon footprint across all Greenhouse Gas (GHG) scopes including direct and indirect contributions.
- Scope 1: direct (on-site) emissions controlled by an organization
- Scope 2: indirect emissions associated with the purchase of utilities
- Scope 3: indirect emissions associated with supply chain
We are proud to have one of the lowest carbon footprints in the field of life-science manufacturing at approximately 25% of the industry reference point (Source: Carbometrix 2023).
From concept to manufacturing, VERDOT is committed to eco-design, energy efficiency, and responsible manufacturing practices.
Engaging in policy
Charles Ruban, our CEO, attended the launch of the decarbonization initiative “Pacte PME” at the Economy and Finance Ministry of France. VERDOT was invited to participate with Sanofi to discuss how to further enable reduction of carbon footprint emissions.
