Laboratório Teuto implements sustainability measures in Brazil

The pharmaceutical industry is increasingly adopting sustainable production models to balance industrial growth with environmental preservation. In Brazil's Center-West region, data from the Federation of Industries of the State of Goiás (FIEG) indicates that energy efficiency and water reuse are strategic priorities for more than 70% of large industrial complexes.

Laboratório Teuto, a major pharmaceutical complex in Anápolis, has implemented several environmental management initiatives. These include installing photovoltaic solar energy systems, prioritizing natural gas, and upgrading to high-performance equipment. The company reported a 6% reduction in energy consumption through the use of new industrial compressors.

Additionally, Teuto has achieved a reduction of over 90% in sulfur dioxide (SOx) emissions in a primary piece of equipment by replacing heavy fossil fuels. The company also conducts greenhouse gas inventories following the Brazilian GHG Protocol guidelines to monitor its carbon footprint.
