Lonza sets goals in the area of safety, health and environmental protection

Long range goal-setting is a dynamic process. Goals have to be reviewed regularly in light of the constant change and development of the business and the committment to continuous improvement and sustainable acting.

Lonza holds its SHE standards high and has defined challenging goals for year 2015. They represent constant motivation to live up to being the reliable and responsible business partner conscious for sound and sustainable safety, health and environmental performance.


  • 2010: The outstanding safety performance (1.5) prompted us to revise the 2015 goal and set it to 1.0 LTIFR.
  • 2009: Goals 2010 and 2015 confirmed.
  • 2008: Confirmation of set goals and their projection to 2015 with a further 25% reduction on the 2010 safety goals and a 10% reduction on the emissions goals.
  • 2007: Bioscience as new technology platform. Acquisition of eight mufacturing and R&D sites. Goals were not revised and represent an increased challenge.
  • 2006: Revision due to restructured asset portfolio (polymer and additives divested).
  • 2005: Five-year SHE goals for Lonza Group based on long-term strategy.
