The core of SenzaGen’s business revolves around innovative tests and services in non-animal toxicology and efficacy testing.
Our high-tech solutions help companies transition to non-animal testing and provide products that do not cause allergic or other toxic reactions:
The Company has frameworks in place that are based on the fundamental values expressed in the UN Global Compact’s ten principles, including a code of conduct. The principles include human rights, working conditions, the environment and anti-corruption, and they provide guidelines for how employees should behave in their day-to-day work and in contact with customers, suppliers, competitors and other external parties. SenzaGen also expects business partners to apply similar standards and principles in their operations and act in accordance with agreed
In addition to these policies, the Company also has separate anti-corruption directives. The Company has a zero-tolerance policy for all forms of corruption, which includes any kind of bribery.
To meet both the customer’s internal quality requirements and the regulatory requirements for study data used in product filings with regulators like the Swedish Medical Products Agency or the FDA, the Group’s lab operations in Lund and Milan are GLP-approved. The approval affirms that the Group has ensured that customer studies subject to GLP requirements can be performed with the quality specified by regulators when the study is used as documentation for regulatory purposes. The approval is assured over time via recurring inspections of the Group’s operations by relevant entities.
For the SenzaGen Group, its employees are its most valuable resource. Their well-being, engagement and skills are essential to good performance, high-quality work and the Company’s growth. In this area, our focus is on skills development, corporate culture, health and safety.
The SenzaGen Group gets involved in key social issues in the field of non-animal tests. Initiatives are being pursued in society to reduce, replace and refine animal testing (the Three Rs), with national and international bodies and agencies working to improve animal welfare and to decrease the number of animals used in tests. In the role of experts, several SenzaGen employees participate in a series of working groups to advance broad acceptance of non-animal testing and the Three R Principles:
SenzaGen’s day-to-day work both within and outside of its laboratory operations is not energy-intensive and does not have any significant impact on the environment. Also, the Group’s operations do not require any permits under Swedish environmental law. At the same time, SenzaGen advocates for and takes measures to improve the environment in every area possible in line with the UN’s principles for corporate sustainability. We aim to always use energy, materials and other resources sparingly.
Our main focus is on following the precautionary principle and meeting the Company’s strategic initiatives to create efficient workflows, processes and ways of working with the least possible environmental impact. For example, SenzaGen has procedures in place for chemical and waste management in its lab environment and its Swedish lab operations follow the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency’s new digital systems for tracking hazardous waste. Procedures are also in place for energy-efficient technical equipment, digital meetings and sourceseparated recycling.
