CHARLOTTE, N.C.—Dentsply Sirona recently announced its updated sustainability strategy, the release of its inaugural sustainability report and a new sustainability hub on its website. Dentsply Sirona’s disclosure is aligned with the guidelines from the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Task Force for Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

“Sustainability is fundamental to our mission and vision. We strive to create long-term value for all our stakeholders by supporting our customers to provide world-class dental care, while integrating sustainability and lifecycle thinking into everything we do,” said Jorge M. Gomez, chief financial officer, Dentsply Sirona and chair of the Dentsply Sirona Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Committee.

Aligned with 10 UN Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs), Dentsply Sirona’s sustainability strategy focuses on three strategic pillars:  “Healthy Planet”, which strives to mitigate the environmental impact of its operations; “Healthy Smiles”, which focuses on improving oral health quality and access globally, supporting its customers and fostering a healthy company culture; and, “Healthy Business”, which ensures Dentsply Sirona is built via responsible and transparent practices and the effective integration of sustainability principles across all aspects of its business.

“The world is facing major environmental, social and economic challenges, and all sectors need to step up and play their part,” says Don Casey, chief executive officer, Dentsply Sirona. “As a global leader in dentistry, Dentsply Sirona has a responsibility to go above and beyond to create a more sustainable future—empowering not only our employees, but our customers, partners and peers to take action with us.”
