Our responsibility
B. Braun protects and improves the health of people around the world. Our goal is to make medical treatment more innovative, efficient and sustainable. We acknowledge our shared standards and global goals and implement them with local contributions. We work continually to integrate even more sustainability into our business models, processes and management functions. Including sustainability indicators in the remuneration systems for our managers was a major step. This common objective supports our focus on long-term growth and responsible behavior.
We consider B. Braun’s impact on the environment throughout the life cycle of our products and our business and purchasing activities. We use technologies and circular economy principles to reduce our environmental impact. We use materials in a resource-efficient manner and design our production processes as energy-efficiently as possible by implementing comprehensive energy management.
B. Braun sees itself as a trainer, promoter and partner to its employees—and offers space for growth, creativity and collaboration. A core aspect of our social responsibility is respect for human rights—both those of our own employees and those of the people in our value chains. For us, social responsibility also means achieving the greatest possible patient and user safety with our health care solutions.
Our employees’ legally and ethically impeccable conduct is a central principle of our value system. The B. Braun Code of Conduct establishes the binding framework for our global activities and our employees. The basis for cooperation with our suppliers is formulated in our ESG standards for suppliers, in which we document our expectations regarding relevant sustainability issues.
