The expert committee is made up of four international specialists from the fields of science, business, and consulting. It was established by Michael Moser, member of the Management Board, and helps Fresenius to further develop its sustainability strategy. Yesterday’s meeting focused on key issues such as water management and the ongoing development of the Group-wide human rights program.
Sarah Tix, Head of Group Sustainability, and Anahita Thoms, co-chairs of the Advisory Board, took time out from a tour of the plant to explain the importance of sustainability issues - start the video on the right.
Fresenius Kabi’s Friedberg site supplies essential medical devices used in the care of critically and chronically ill patients in more than 100 countries. Around 650 employees work at the plant. Every year, more than 125 million infusion solutions and around 70 million liquid medicines such as analgesics and narcotic agents are manufactured here. The adjacent logistics center puts together around 40,000 consignments every month and is responsible for packing and shipping them.
