Protecting the Planet for a Healthier Future

At Henry Schein we are working to reduce our environmental impact and promote responsible business practices in our own operations and supply chain, in collaboration with our suppliers, partners, and customers. Based on our ability to maximize impact, we focus principally on four environmental areas:

Henry Schein's Four Environmental Focus Areas

Striving for circularity in our operations and continually reducing waste, recycling, and reusing materials

Driving action and innovation in the supply chain together with partners and suppliers

Our Commitment

We are committed to climate action and transparency by continuously strengthening our approach to measuring, monitoring, and reporting on our carbon emissions and other environmental impacts.

Carbon Neutrality

We aspire to be carbon neutral in our supply chain by 2050 or sooner and have committed to Science-Based Targets and to set our science-based net zero target by the end of 2023. Aligning our climate ambitions with the goals of the Paris Agreement and what climate science deems necessary to avoid the worst impacts of climate change.
