Caring for the planet

Climate change is the foremost challenge of our generation. Our environmental pillar has a strong focus on greenhouse gas / carbon reduction but also aims to minimize Ipsen’s impacts in other areas: leading on climate, preserving natural resources, and ecosystems, as well as enhancing product sustainability.
