Sai Life Sciences wins GSK’s Environmental Sustainability Supplier award 2021 in the ‘Primary Manufacturing’ category

Every year, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) organises the Environmental Supplier awards to recognise its suppliers’ contribution to environmental sustainability. Now in its 8th year, the platform has grown to become a prestigious forum for recognising superior environmental sustainability practices across the company’s global value chain, with growing participation from several of its direct and indirect suppliers.

At its first ever participation in the awards, Sai Life Sciences won the Environmental Supplier award 2021 in the ‘Primary Manufacturing’ category. It won the award for effectively embedding green chemistry principles in its approach to process development, which will impact multiple projects towards greener manufacturing.

Maureen Kocisko, a GSK representative said, “Our judges were highly impressed with the good practice and commitment to sustainability from the Sai team. Working with our suppliers to improve their own environmental footprint is a key contributor to our 2030 goal to be carbon net zero and nature net positive.”

This recognition marks another important milestone in Sai Life Sciences’ journey of transforming its EHS practices in-line with the best-in-class global practices. The Company has made significant investments and progress in advancing its Sustainability agenda as part of its organizational transformation initiative, Sai Nxt.
