Sustainability at Cellex
For us, people are at the centre of everything we do – as patients, as employees, as part of our shared future. We are a biotech company with many years of experience in manufacturing autologous and allogeneic cell therapy products that can enable healing. Through our work on innovative products and with innovative customers and partners, we are constantly contributing to thinking about and shaping the future. However, we see healing not only as a medical goal, but also as a social responsibility.
It is therefore our constant aim to shape a sustainable future that is worth living in.
With our economically, ecologically and socially sustainable measures, we want to contribute to improving people’s quality of life and securing the livelihoods of current and future generations.
At the heart of our actions are the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which we see as a global guideline for our strategic and operational decisions. Whether through resource-saving production methods, the use of sustainable materials or our commitment to health, education and equal opportunities:
We focus on solutions that are effective today and will continue to be effective tomorrow.
EcoVadis rating
We take responsibility for the environment, society and our business practices. The EcoVadis status rating of ‘Committed’ in our initial assessment confirms our approach and marks the starting point for continuous development in the areas of environment, ethics, labour standards and sustainable procurement.
Environment & Sustainability: Responsibility for Our Planet
As an innovative biotechnology company, we take responsibility—for people’s health and for protecting our environment. Sustainability is a core part of our strategy. That’s why we implement targeted measures to conserve resources, reduce emissions, and minimize our environmental impact.
Social Responsibility: For a Fair Working and Living Environment
People are at the center of what we do—inside and outside our company. Social sustainability is the foundation of long-term success for us. We promote a respectful workplace with equal opportunities, safety, and development, and we take responsibility toward society and our communities.
Integrity & Compliance: Acting on Clear Shared Principles
Integrity, transparency, and reliability guide our actions. As a biotechnology company, we are committed to the highest ethical and legal standards. We act responsibly and transparently and strive to be a fair, reliable partner for customers, business partners, and employees.
As an innovative biotechnology company, we are not only responsible for human health, but also for protecting our environment. For us, sustainability is not a short-term trend, but a central component of our corporate strategy. We implement targeted measures to minimise our environmental impact and make an active contribution to climate protection.
CO₂ reduction and energy efficiency
A key objective of our environmental strategy is the continuous reduction of our carbon footprint. By optimising our production processes and, in particular, sourcing renewable energies, we are working to reduce our energy consumption and use resources more sparingly and in a more targeted manner.
Sustainable procurement
Our responsibility begins with the selection of our suppliers and materials. We are committed to sustainable procurement that takes environmental and social standards into account throughout the entire supply chain. Wherever possible, we give preference to regional and environmentally friendly materials in order to reduce transport emissions and strengthen local value creation.
Waste reduction
Another focus is on waste prevention and reduction. We take a holistic approach to using materials efficiently and returning residual materials to the cycle wherever possible. We ensure that waste is disposed of properly and are increasingly relying on recyclable packaging and materials.
People are at the heart of everything we do – both inside and outside our company. For us, social sustainability is an essential component of long-term success.
Employee development
We invest specifically in the further training and personal development of our employees. Through individual support programmes, regular training courses and transparent career paths, we create an environment in which potential can grow.
Health and safety
The protection and well-being of our teams is our top priority. With comprehensive occupational health and safety measures, health-promoting offers and an open safety culture, we ensure a safe and supportive working environment.
Diversity and inclusion
We value diversity and promote an open corporate culture in which all people have equal opportunities regardless of their origin, gender, age or lifestyle. Because true innovation arises where different perspectives come together.
Social commitment (Cellex Foundation)
We are actively committed to society and take responsibility for it by supporting social projects and promoting science and education. Our goal is to provide sustainable impetus for a tolerant and cosmopolitan community.
Integrity, transparency and reliability are the cornerstones of our actions. As a biotechnology company with a high level of social responsibility, we are committed to the highest ethical and legal standards and strive to be a fair, reliable and trustworthy partner for our customers, business partners and employees.
Compliance and ethics
We follow clear codes of conduct that ensure lawful and ethical behaviour in all areas of the company. Our employees receive regular training to enable them to identify risks at an early stage and act appropriately.
Data protection and cyber security
The protection of sensitive data is our top priority – both when handling patient data and in our research and business processes. We continuously invest in modern IT security solutions and the secure handling of information.
Transparency and reporting
We value clear, comprehensible communication with stakeholders, partners and authorities. We build trust and reliability through regular sustainability reports, assessments and transparent disclosure.
Risk management
Proactive risk management is part of our corporate identity. We systematically identify, assess and manage risks in order to ensure the long-term stability, quality and sustainability of our processes.
