PEG: Pharmaceutical Environment Group

The Pharmaceutical Environment Group (PEG) is a collaborative initiative between leading healthcare companies working together to improve environmental sustainability. Projects include the Pharmaceutical Life-Cycle Assessment Consortium, which develops Product Category Rules (PCRs) to set robust guidelines for estimating and reporting product life cycle environmental impacts.

Whether it’s addressing climate change impact and reaching Net Zero emissions; embracing a shift to circularity; measuring and reducing the impact of products throughout their lifecycle; or understanding and measuring our interaction with the natural world, PEG participating companies recognize their responsibility to minimize and reduce their environmental footprint. They also know that often these issues cannot be addressed in isolation – they need shared ambitious thinking and meaningful collaboration.


Discover a universal approach to assessing the environmental impact of pharmaceutical products.


Developing the standards and measurement tools that define sustainable success.

PEG is dedicated to initiatives that drive sustainability across the entire Pharma industry. We start by assessing the industry landscape to develop the standards that guide progress.

Meanwhile, the Pharmaceutical Life-Cycle Assessment Consortium’s (“Pharma LCA”) facilitates a universal approach to assessing the environmental impact of pharmaceutical products. This should enable pharmaceutical companies and their stakeholders — including payers — to make informed choices about product development and patient care. The Consortium’s outputs will be freely accessible to all pharmaceutical companies and their stakeholders.
