Resource Productivity, Competitiveness, Decarbonization: Insights from Pharma Manufactures

Insights from Pharma Manufactures in Emerging Markets

Approximately 60% of emissions for pharma companies can be abated at positive NPV or near zero cost by 2040 - meaning that for most pharma manufacturers, decarbonizing is not just environmentally sound, it makes financial sense. The technologies to do so already exist: heat pumps, central cooling, biomass, renewables and other. For pharma manufacturers, improving resource efficiency is not just an environmental commitment; it is a direct driver of competitiveness, margin protection, and long-term business resilience.

The real challenge is translating that potential into operational practice. Many companies have set corporate targets, but lack a clear understanding of where efficiency gains are greatest, how to prioritize investments, and how to build a roadmap that delivers measurable results. Leading pharma manufacturers in emerging markets are navigating this challenge, and their experience holds valuable lessons for the broader industry.
