Sustainability
The values and principles that Boehringer Ingelheim has been committed to for over 130 years are firmly embedded in our corporate philosophy. As a family-owned business, we think in generations. Operating sustainably is a major priority. In our desire to serve humanity, we feel responsible for our communities and are respectful of our resources. We work constantly to protect and foster the Environment, Health and Safety (EHS). We envision a healthy planet – by improving human, animal and environmental health.
Safeguarding our planet is at the heart of everything we do. In terms of protecting the environment, our “BE GREEN – Future by Choice” initiative has successfully reduced Boehringer Ingelheim’s energy use, water consumption and CO2 emissions.
We also want our employees to be safe at work – and we are taking concrete steps to ensure that they are: through our “BE SAFE – Zero by Choice” initiative, we have dramatically reduced the amount of accidents per hours worked.
