Environmental Impact


Environmental Impact

 

From the beginning, the protection of the environment has been a priority for Roche’s founding family. This legacy has inspired us to take concrete action to fight climate change and protect the environment. Our employees play a key role in this.

 

Since 2004, we have reduced our energy consumption by 48% per employee. Driven by decreased energy consumption and use of fossil fuels, our CO2 emissions dropped by 67% per employee in the same period. Since the early 2000s, we have been measuring our environmental impact, ranging from the consumption of energy and resources to the emission of by-products and waste. And we have set ourselves ambitious targets for the future.

Roche Diagnostics Australia is an active member of the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO). 
Our annual report and action plan may be found here.

 

 

Our long-term goal is to reduce emissions to zero by 2050
