Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Edesa Biotech, Inc. operates in the biopharmaceutical sector, which typically involves animal testing in drug development. Critics point to the company's lack of transparency regarding its animal welfare policies, suggesting a fundamental conflict with "Kind to Animals" values due to the likelihood of such testing. On a positive note, Edesa Biotech increased its non-hazardous waste diversion rate by 27% in 2023 and reduced paper waste by 12,100 kg annually by transitioning to electronic instructions. The company also complies with the EU WEEE Directive for electrical equipment recycling. For most other ethical areas, including fair pay, economic opportunity, and planet-friendly business, reports indicate insufficient evidence to assess performance.
