Our path towards ​sustainable development

As a manufacturer and distributor of diagnostic tests for clinical pathologies worldwide, we have an immediate impact on patients. With our operational sites in 4 European countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France) and an extensive network of distributors, every year we are able to reach millions of patients worldwide expecting a life changing diagnose. Pathologists around the world rely on us for an accurate and timely response. ​

How do we act?

All our daughter companies’ quality management systems are ISO certified, and an important part of our product portfolio has also obtained the IVDR certification. This ensures that we can offer the best quality products to our customers and keep having a positive impact on healthcare systems worldwide.​

To enable and facilitate diagnostic testing, both in our direct markets and abroad, we provide regular training and professional education activities to our customers and distributors to ensure they can expand their testing capabilities and have state-of-the-art knowledge. ​

What‘s our goal?​

As a global player in the clinical space, our goal is to enable more and better testing, especially in countries where access to care and diagnostic is oftentimes difficult.​

Our growth and achievements would never be possible without the hundreds of ZYTOMICS’ employees. They play a crucial role in driving this company’s success, and we know how Zytomics has a direct impact on their lives. We want to constantly improve ZYTOMICS for them, making it a great place to work, where everybody feels comfortable, and nobody is discriminated against. ​

How do we act?

At ZYTOMICS we value diversity and consider it a prerequisite for a fruitful working environment and for our success. Our employees come from different educational and professional backgrounds, have different ages and experience levels, and many have lived and worked in multiple countries around the globe. We are proud that overall, almost 70% of our employees are women and that this percentage is reflected in the key leadership roles  ike that of our managers.​

We want to make sure that ZYTOMICS is a place where our employees can continuously grow, both on a personal and professional level, by taking on responsibilities, learning on the job, and participating in the regular trainings we offer.​

What‘s our goal?​

By increasing transparency and diversity, and by promoting continuous learning, our goal is to keep improving ZYTOMICS as a place where our employees can thrive. ​

Our business and operations also have an impact on the environment and the climate. We are aware that climate change is a threat to us all and by making environmentally conscious decisions and by monitoring our impact on the climate we can play a role in driving down global GHG emissions.

How do we act?

To reduce our emissions linked to electricity consumption in our Berlin facility we have installed solar panels on the roof. They provide part of the electricity that we need to power our headquarters. The rest of the electricity comes, through a utility, from renewable sources as well, ensuring the lowest possible footprint for our headquarters’ electricity consumption.​

We actively engage with our customers to avoid unnecessary waste by promoting the return of packaging materials. Customers have the possibility to send back to us, free of charge, the packages with which they receive their products. Once the packaging is returned to our sites, we are able to reuse it, thereby avoiding the creation of environmentally harmful waste. ​

What‘s our goal?​

Estimating environmental impacts is notoriously complicated and there is uncertainty associated with it. We are working towards improving our monitoring methodologies, to make sure we can capture as precisely as possible our environmental and climatic impact and find the best ways to reduce our carbon footprint.
