Commitment to achieving Net Zero
Stryker Corporation (hereinafter “Stryker”) is committed to achieving carbon neutral status for
scopes 1 & 2 emissions by 2030. The emissions data contained in this report relates to Stryker
Corporation globally, of which the supplier, Stryker UK Limited, is a wholly owned subsidiary.
Stryker UK Limited is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050 in line with the goals of the
NHS net zero supplier roadmap.
Baseline Emissions Footprint
Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and
were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions
are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.
Baseline Year: 2019
Additional Details relating to the Baseline Emissions calculations
Stryker‘s current baseline and goals for carbon reduction include scopes 1 & 2 only. Guided by the
GHG Protocol for Scope 3 Accounting and Reporting, in 2021, we completed a pilot scope 3
carbon emissions analysis utilizing 2019 data for all relevant categories. These 2019 results are
estimates based on primary and secondary data. Stryker continues to refine our approach to
scope 3 carbon emissions data in order to establish a scope 3 baseline which is expected to inform
a future Science Based Target initiative (SBTi) target.
Because Stryker’s 2019 scope 3 emissions are not a complete inventory, we have not included it in
the 2019 baseline. Stryker’s available scope 3 data can be found in Stryker’s Corporate
Responsibility hub: https://www.stryker.com/us/en/about/corporate-responsibility/cr-hub.html
in the 2021 Environmental Performance Data.
The scope 3 data contained below reflects Stryker’s currently available data for scope 3. As of the
date of publication of this Carbon Reduction Plan, the included GHG Protocol scope 3 categories
are: upstream transportation and distribution (category 4), waste generated in operations
(category 5), business travel (category 6), employee commuting (category 7), and downstream
transportation and distribution (category 9).
Stryker is currently validating emissions data for calendar year 2022, which we anticipate will be
submitted to CDP Worldwide and subsequently published by the end of Q3, 2023 in accordance
with CDP procedures. At this time, Stryker will also publish 2021 scope 3 emissions data and a
scope 3 emissions baseline.
