Convatec scores 39/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified August 2026.
That places Convatec joint 290th of 650 companies scored, and joint 11th of 14 in Healthcare / Pharmaceuticals.
Convatec has achieved credible operational carbon reductions (62% Scope 1+2 by 2024) backed by SBTi validation, but Scope 3—representing 94% of footprint—targets intensity, not absolute cuts. Water and biodiversity impacts are identified but unquantified. Transparency is strong; controversies absent.
