Stratasys Advances Mindful Manufacturingâ„¢ Vision With Fourth Annual ESG and Sustainability Report, Featuring Year-Over-Year Scope 3 Emissions Disclosure
Company showcases measurable progress in climate impact, resource circularity, supply chain resilience, and workforce diversity
Stratasys Ltd. today released its fourth annual Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and Sustainability Report, showcasing significant progress in Mindful Manufacturing™ principles and reinforcing its leadership role in advancing sustainable, next-generation manufacturing.
A centerpiece of the 2024 report is the company's first-ever year-over-year Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disclosure. Verified by independent third parties, this expanded data collection, analysis, transparency and insights into Stratasys' carbon footprint reinforce the company's commitment to climate conscious operations and accountability.
The Scope 3 analysis was conducted by THG MyCarbon and received limited assurance from Motive Analytics. It includes emissions from purchased goods and services, upstream transportation, business travel, product use, and end-of-life treatment, providing a comprehensive view of the Stratasys value chain impact well beyond direct operations.
2024 Sustainability Highlights include:
23.1% reduction in overall carbon footprint (GHG emissions) from 2023 to 2024
First Scope 3 emissions disclosure (2023 vs 2024), spanning 11 value chain categories
653 tCOâ‚‚e avoided through renewable energy use
15% reduction in water consumption intensity
38.4% of waste diverted from landfill
477 metric tons of materials recycled or reconditioned through take-back and trade-in programs
Launch of SAF™ ReLife for full reuse of PA12 waste powder
Launch of the GrabCAD Carbon Estimator for real-time carbon tracking in AM workflows
Expansion of ISO 14001 environmental management certifications to sites in Germany and the U.S.
Recognition with the EcoVadis Silver Medal, placing Stratasys among the top 15% of companies worldwide
38% female manager hiring rate (above 35% KPI and up from 25% last year)
Record-high employee engagement score of 74 with 91% participation
The 2024 report details how Stratasys is embedding sustainability across its business, from product innovation to operations, with initiatives such as the launch of SAF™ ReLife, enabling 100% reuse of PA12 powder on our H350 machine, and the introduction of the GrabCAD Carbon Estimator, which helps manufacturers track and reduce the carbon impact of additive manufacturing.
"From our year-over-year Scope 3 emissions inventory to product innovations that enable low-carbon production, we're helping manufacturers meet rising environmental expectations while embedding sustainability into our own operations," said Rosa Coblens, Vice President of Global Sustainability and Communications at Stratasys. "Through our Mindful Manufacturing™ approach, we are showing that sustainable practices deliver important business impact — from reducing costs and waste to enabling more resilient supply chains. ESG excellence is central to how we innovate and lead in additive manufacturing."
The annual ESG and Sustainability Report is published in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and with reference to the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) framework.

Featured Product
FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
