Environment
In the case of Novo Nordisk, the environmental impact of products is highest in the production phase, and the production of pharmaceuticals is resource-intensive, particularly in terms of water and energy. The company's influence on the environmental impact of its activities decreases through the products' life cycle. Once the processes and products have been designed and validated, the interventions that can be carried out are minimal. It is therefore vital that environmental considerations are integrated into the development and design of new manufacturing processes and products.
