In 2025, SGD Pharma continued to turn sustainability into a strategic driver for long-term value creation.
Our approach combines tangible actions on our operations and across our value chain, reflecting our commitment to environmental, social, and ethical excellence.
Accelerating decarbonization, transforming our industrial footprint
At Vemula, we completed the full rebuild of our furnace using next-generation hybrid technology.
This project is designed to:
• Improve energy efficiency and reduce production carbon intensity
• Modernize a critical industrial asset with high-performing technology
This initiative demonstrates how operational excellence and climate action can be integrated, and is part of a broader effort to accelerate decarbonization across all sites.
People at the core, strengthening our safety culture
Our annual Safety Week engages employees across all sites worldwide.
Through workshops, experience sharing, and on-the-ground initiatives, we strengthen safety awareness and embed a culture of prevention.
Safety is a collective responsibility, and a non-negotiable foundation for performance and well-being.
Sustainable Procurement & R&D – Supplier CSR
In 2025, we re-evaluated 371 critical suppliers, covering 90% of purchasing volume and 70% of procurement spend, across 61 ESG criteria.
Low performers were directly supported to improve, while Green and Yellow suppliers were encouraged to continue progress.
Ethics & Compliance – Integrity
Our global Anti-Corruption Policy applies to all employees and partners. In 2025, 100% of high-risk functions were included in our action plan:
• Annual Ethical Business Conduct certification and conflict-of-interest declaration
• Strengthened selection and monitoring of agents and distributors
• Dedicated procurement procedures for support functions
SGD Pharma has had no ethical disputes or litigation for several years, reflecting the effectiveness of our integrity measures.
These examples illustrate only a fraction of what SGD Pharma undertakes to embed sustainability, responsibility, and integrity across operations.
Sustainability is a strategic pillar for resilience, competitiveness, and long-term value creation.
