PRESS RELEASE
30 SEPTEMBER 2024 at 10.00 a.m. EEST
Orion’s near-term climate targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative
Orion Corporation is proud to announce that the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has validated our near-term science-based targets. This means that our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets align with the latest climate science to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
Orion Corporation commits
Scopes 1 and 2 refer to direct GHG emissions from our own operations and indirect emissions associated with the purchase of energy, respectively. These targets do not include carbon offsets.
“Industry must be at the forefront of tackling climate change,” says Liisa Hurme, President and CEO of Orion. “As an innovative pharmaceutical company, science is at the heart of everything we do, so it was important for Orion to confirm that our near-term emissions reduction targets also align with the latest climate science. This approval is a significant step forward in our systematic sustainability work, and it reflects our purpose of building well-being.”
Concrete measures for a more sustainable future
To attain these targets, Orion will continue to implement a range of measures, including energy efficiency projects at our production sites. We have made significant strides in improving energy efficiency, with projects that led to 11,459 MWh energy savings in 2023. For example, our manufacturing plants in Turku and Espoo have implemented innovative heat pump systems that utilize waste heat and energy from outdoor air, significantly reducing our carbon footprint. Our commitment extends beyond our own operations, as we work closely with suppliers and partners to reduce emissions throughout our value chain.
About the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a global body that enables businesses to set ambitious emissions reduction targets in line with the latest climate science. The SBTi defines and promotes best practices in emissions reductions and net-zero targets, providing companies with a clearly defined path to reduce emissions in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

About sustainability at Orion
Orion’s Sustainability Agenda covers four key themes: patient safety, environmental responsibility, employee well-being, and ethical business practices. We promote sustainability throughout the life cycle of a medicine – from the product development of our medicines and other products to their use and eventual disposal.
Our activities impact the environment and people around the world, so it is not enough for us to strive to improve our own operations. The sustainability of our value chain is equal to the sustainability of Orion, and together with our partners we are taking the pharmaceutical industry in a more sustainable direction.
