Following the science
Everything Perceptive does is driven by science. Our approach to our environmental impact is no different.
Perceptive has committed to reducing its carbon footprint in line with the 2015 Paris Agreement, which aims to keep global warming below 2°C, while attempting to limit warming to 1.5°C.
Perceptive has committed itself to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and will publicly report our carbon data using the CDP, a leading climate NGO.
Post Calyx’s merger with Invicro in October 2024 we confirmed our commitments to cut our scope 1 & 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions it controls by 35% by 2027. We will also engage with our suppliers to reduce our scope 3 GHG emissions by 30% by 2032.
Perceptive’s 2024 EcoVadis sustainability rating has improved to 47/100, marking a significant step forward in our commitment to responsible business practices. This score reflects continued progress across key areas including environmental impact, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.
This marks our third consecutive year of improvement, building on previous scores of 21/100 in 2022 and 39/100 in 2023. The latest assessment was our first submission since coming together as Perceptive, and it confirms that our sustainability efforts are delivering measurable results.
Our enhanced rating is the result of:
• Robust governance and training programs across the organization.
• Sustainable procurement initiatives that align with our environmental goals.
• Clear emission reduction targets, including a 35% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 emissions by 2027 and 30% in Scope 3 by 2032—targets we are already ahead of.
We remain committed to transparency and continuous improvement.
We completed the legacy Calyx survey of suppliers in March 2024.
Against our target of 15% we are tracking 17% of spend with suppliers who define themselves as having diverse ownership.
In early 2025 we will re-run the survey again and include all suppliers from our recent merger.
