PiE
Why Environmental Footprint over the Live Cycle?
Growing interest in environmental impacts outside the company boundary
 Requests for information on supply chain from stakeholders and sustainability
rating agencies
 Stakeholder concerns related to potential environmental impacts (micropollutants) from pharmaceutical product use and disposal
 Trends with respect to increasing outsourcing and change of production
patterns
 Globalization of business and of the value chain
In 2009 we did a Scope 3 GHG emission estimation for Novartis overall
with following results:
• Raw material generation may represent the largest carbon impact
• Other relevant impacts are waste disposal, infrastructure, business travel
and packaging material disposal
9 | Environmental Sustainability at Novartis | August 2013 | Business Use Only
Objectives for our
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) work
 Gain better understanding of impacts (carbon, waste, water, ecotoxicity, etc.) and assessment methodologies
 Learn how to use tools effectively
 Develop an understanding of relevant influencing factors and
product specific parameters that determine the impact
 Raise awareness for these factors and how they can be influenced
in the business
 Find ways to reduce relevant life cycle impacts for the benefit of
clients, the company and the environment
10 | Environmental Sustainability at Novartis | August 2013 | Business Use Only
Life Cycle Analysis Learning
What did we learn from Cradle-to-grave LCA / Supply Chain Carbon
Footprint:
• Pharma product impact overall is small:
10kg CO2e for annual patient dose = driving 35km
• Impact from materials (solvents, intermediates) purchased from the
supply chain is dominant (60%)
• Potential end-of-live impact (Pharmaceuticals in the Environment) is not
well reflected in a Carbon Footprint analysis
• Internal transportation and distribution (for high volume products) are
marginal
What did we learn from Cradle-to-gate Carbon Footprinting for APIs:
• Synthetic APIs have a clearly higher impact than Bio-tech APIs (170
versus 17tCO2e/t)
• Energy is the dominant factor in Bio-tech (80%)
• Supply chain and internal transportation are marginal (2%)
11 | Environmental Sustainability at Novartis | August 2013 | Business Use Only
Influencing factors
 What type of API generation do we have (synthetic versus
fermentation/bio-tech)?
 What is the molecule (how complex is its chemical
synthesis)?
 What is the physiological activity of the molecule (what is
the dose required)?
 What (supply and distribution) logistics have we chosen?
 What is the environmental effect potential after use (PiE);
what measures are necessary to keep the environmental
impact marginal?
 Which improvements count the most?

Novartis Position
 Minimize environmental impact of activities and
products over life cycle; work with suppliers
 No risk for human health; implications for
aquatic wildlife limited or inconclusive
 Four-fold strategy, applies to all operations
involved in R&D, production and disposal
• Environmental risk assessment: evaluate impact
of new products before reaching the marketplace
• Manufacturing: minimize discharge of APIs from
operations; take appropriate corrective measures
• Save disposal: do not dispose waste containing
APIs into landfills; recommend avoiding disposal into
sewers or landfills; welcome state-of-art waste water
treatment and processes/system to ensure
incineration
• Increase knowledge: support academia and
regulators to close data gaps
15 | Environmental Sustainability at Novartis | August 2013 | Business Use Only
Three pathways into the environment
Patient use
• Excretion, washing off the skin
• Hospitals / retirement homes
Upgrade of public waste water treatment
• Extent of metabolization
Incorrect disposal
• Toilet flushing
• Landfill of household waste
Collection / take-back schemes,
consumer education
• Take-back schemes (e.g. Spain)
Factory effluents
• ChemOps, PharmOps sites
• API suppliers and formulation
contractors
Site special waste water treatment,
operational measures

Novartis Vision on Sustainable Packaging
“Consistent with our goal to be the most respected
health care company, Novartis will design and utilize
packaging solutions that minimize the impact on the
environment while meeting all design, functional,
regulatory and quality requirements that our patients
and customers expect.”
Developed by the Sustainable Packaging Committee, approved by HSE
SteCom and endorsed by ECN in Nov 2010

Design guide on Sustainable Packaging
 Principles of Sustainable Packaging
• Material selection
1. Choose materials with lower environmental impact
2. Reduce number of different materials
• Design and size of the package
3. Reduce total amount of materials
4. Reduce excess volume
5. Reduce number of layers
• Procurement of packaging materials
6. Purchase from environmentally and socially
responsible suppliers
7. Consider certified/preferred materials
8. Consider local sources
 Specific questions on each level of packaging
• Primary packaging
• Secondary packaging
• Tertiary packaging
20 | Environmental Sustainability at Novartis | August 2013 | Business Use Only
Energy and climate: commitment and targets
 Climate commitment
•
In 2001, Novartis joined the UN Global Compact
•
In 2004, Voluntary “Kyoto” target set for global direct CO2 emissions: Emit 5% less
greenhouse gases (GHGs) by 2012 than in 1990; i.e. <293kt of Scope 1 on-site GHG
emissions
•
In 2010, mid-term 15% reduction of total GHGs (Scope1 and Scope 2) by 2015, and
long-term 20% reduction by 2020, based on 2008 levels
 To achieve these targets, Novartis employs a dual strategy
•
Improve energy efficiency and make use of renewable resources in order to keep
energy use and GHG emissions at a minimum
•
Engage and participate in “carbon offset“ projects (sequestration) in order to
compensate for part of the Novartis GHG emissions

• Generated over 500 projects totaling more than USD 100 million in cost savings
• Saved 4,000 terajoules
• 350 kiloton reduction of GHG, which equals the total emissions of the Novartis Group’s
30 000 vehicles over 2 years
• Created tangible, replicable best practices
 The awards are perceived as a highly prestigious prize with senior management support
 Associates are motivated to “compete with the best”

2012 Kyoto target achieved
 Novartis on-site Scope1 GHG
emissions by 2012 (excl. Alcon)
are 5% below 1990, i.e.: 293kt
kt
 Results:
• Emissions: 2012 emission were
409kt. The needs from offset projects
is therefore at least 116kt.
• Offsets: Argentina reached 118kt by
year end 2012. The Mali project gave
only about 1.1kt offsets.
• Result:
Emissions
