In 2021, we made strides toward weaving an ethos of sustainability throughout our organization. From setting a net zero greenhouse gas emissions goal to hiring our first Vice President of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Novanta is charting a path toward a more sustainable future. Learn about the progress we made in 2021 across Environmental, Social and Governance topics.

Environment

Our products benefit society by streamlining existing processes, saving time, and saving lives. At the same time, we recognize that our operations do impact the environment by using energy and generating waste. We are working diligently to reduce our impact across our facilities.

Social

Our people are our greatest asset. We strive to keep our people safe, stimulated and engaged by creating a culture of inclusion, setting high standards and providing ongoing learning and development opportunities. Our service-driven approach extends to the communities in which we operate.

Sustainability takes work and takes a team. I am proud to be on a team that cares about our planet and takes action to ensure that we do our part for a clean tomorrow.

Governance

We view sustainability as central to our growth. Responsibility for managing and making decisions on ESG topics lies with our senior-most leaders, the Novanta Leadership Team, under the oversight of our Board of Directors. Our leaders promote business practices and operating procedures that can withstand the highest levels of scrutiny.
