Progress that respects the planet.
We continue to advance technologies, processes, and practices designed to reduce environmental impact, improve resource efficiency, and support responsible progress across our products, services, and operations.
Advancing a More Sustainable Future
Innovation gives us practical ways to reduce resource use, improve process efficiency, and lessen environmental impact. Across our operations and platform technologies, we apply science and process design to support more responsible development and manufacturing.
Sustainability in Action
Environmental Practices
Across our operations, sustainability efforts include certified laboratories, environmental management standards, renewable electricity, and site-level initiatives that reduce environmental impact.
Process Innovation
Across our platform technologies and manufacturing approaches, including continuous flow and biocatalysis, we apply process design to improve efficiency, reduce material and solvent use, and support lower-impact production.
Resource Efficiency
We continue to improve how materials, energy, water, and other resources are used across our operations to reduce waste and improve efficiency.
Innovation that does more with less.
Our platform technologies are designed to address technical challenges while improving how resources are used across development and manufacturing. By reducing solvent use, raw material consumption, process steps, and waste, these technologies can support more efficient, lower-impact production.
Site-specific conjugation and linker technology for ADCs and other bioconjugates that supports more efficient use of raw materials and reduces process complexity, helping enable high-yield, lower-waste production.
Our proprietary liquid-phase synthesis technology for oligonucleotides and peptides that reduces organic solvent use and waste while supporting high yield and purity, helping improve material efficiency at scale.
Microbial secretion technology using an endotoxin-free, Gram-positive bacterium can reduce chemical solvent use and process mass intensity while enabling renewable carbon sources for recombinant protein and peptide production.
Progress for People and the Planet
As part of the Ajinomoto Group, we contribute to enterprise-wide goals focused on improving well-being and reducing environmental impact through the technologies, processes, and operations we advance.
1 Billion
Extend Healthy Life Expectancy
Ajinomoto Group aims to help extend the healthy life expectancy of one billion people by 2030.
50%
Reduce Environmental Impact
Ajinomoto Group aims to cut environmental impact in half by 2030 — on the path to carbon neutrality across the Group by 2050.
