How can we take joint responsibility?

Medical products are essential for maintaining modern and high-quality health care systems. At the same time, they can be a threat to both the environment and our health due to hazardous content, and a high level of resource exploitation. Five Nordic Public Buyers have therefore joined forces to use their purchasing power to challenge the market to develop more sustainable products.
 

Market dialogue objectives

The objectives of this market dialogue are as follows:

  • Inform the market about the Buyer’s strategies to procure greener products/sustainability strategies.
  • Discuss measures and challenges related to testing/developing and procuring greener products.
  • To explore what solutions are available in the market and what and what will be available
  • Collect input from the market
  • Discuss how public-private collaboration through procurement can stimulate suppliers to produce more environmentally friendly products.
