Promega is committing to set company-wide greenhouse gas emission reductions with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The move reflects the biotechnology manufacturer's focus on environmental stewardship shaped by scientific understanding. Kornberg Center, the company's research and development center in Madison, Wisconsin, was constructed to use 60% less energy than a comparable facility built to building codes.



This action reflects Promega Corporation's long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship, shaped by scientific understanding, accountability and a focus on long-term impact.

Scientific Approach to Climate Responsibility

Promega Corporation is guided by a 100-year vision that informs how it builds, operates and grows. Sustainability is integrated into daily decision-making and long-range planning. As a science-based company, Promega approaches climate action with a focus on realistic, science-aligned goals that reflect operational realities.

Structured 24-Month Target-Setting Plan

Following the SBTi framework, Promega Corporation will engage in a 24-month cross-functional process to model, define and submit its science-based targets. Teams from sustainability, manufacturing, engineering and facilities will collaborate to ensure the goals are ambitious, achievable and grounded in how the company operates globally.

"Joining this effort reflects our ongoing commitment to science-informed environmental responsibility," said Corey Meek, Promega Corporate Responsibility Program Manager. "We've taken a careful approach to ensure our targets are supported by a clear path to achievement.
