Mitigating climate change and promoting the circular economy
We are confronted with a climate emergency, and inaction is no longer an option.
At Ferrer we believe that our activity as a pharmaceutical company should create more environmental value than it consumes.
For this reason, we promote actions aimed at mitigating climate change through the circular economy and decarbonisation of energy.
Since we are aware that there is a lot of work to be done and many people will to have join us on this journey, we have made the protection of the planet a priority in our strategic plan through the Liveable Planet pillar.
We have the opportunity to regenerate the planet, but, if we let this opportunity pass, things will take their course without us.
Liveable Planet Goals
At Ferrer we want to guarantee a habitable planet for everyone
