Getinge 2022 Annual Report

Getinge 2022 Annual Report Introduction Strategy Corporate Governance Annual Report Sustainability Report Other information Contents Comment from the CEO We have a very important mission - to support improving and saving lives. It is a mission that goes beyond hospitals and life science institutions, as it is about conducting business that contributes to a sustainable future. Getinge operates in more than 130 countries, and as a global player we can contribute to a better world. We believe that everyone should have access to the best possible healthcare that today's and future technology can enable. This is why we work hard to ensure that caregivers have the tools and support they need to improve and save lives. Our sustainability work is of great importance to our business and affects the way we act as a company and how we interact with our employees, customers and partners. A few years ago we introduced a sustainability framework consisting of four parts: quality culture, passionate employees, business ethics & responsible leadership and environmental & social engagement. Based on our business needs and the areas in which we have the greatest impact, the sustainability framework describes how we conduct business in a sustain- able way and at the same time deliver value to all our stakeholders. You can read more about these efforts on the following pages. I would like to take this opportunity to highlight our environ- mental commitment. During the year, we continued our efforts to become carbon neutral in our own production by 2025. For example, we currently use more than 60% renewable energy in our production and have reduced total carbon emissions in production by 48% compared to 2021. We also submitted our carbon emissions targets for the full value chain to the Science Based Target initiative, with the target of becoming a net-zero emission company by 2050. This means we have a baseline in place with distinct targets. As for most companies, it is also challenging for us to reduce our Scope 3 emissions, meaning those throughout the entire value chain, but we are determined to succeed. Together with our customers, partners and suppliers we strive for a future where healthcare is better, efficient and more accessible. Mattias Perjos, President & CEO 131
