Zimmer Biomet wins EPA nod for greening of Indiana HQ

Zimmer Biomet (NYSE:ZBH) today touted that its Warsaw, Indiana headquarters are now in compliance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Green Power Partnership program.

The company said its headquarters will be wholly powered by renewable, green energy that comes from “environmentally preferable renewable sources” including wind, solar, low-impact hydro and geothermal.

“We are proud to partner with the EPA and NIPSCO to lead the green power revolution in Indiana by converting 100% of our headquarters’ power consumption to renewable energy sources. Sustainably and responsibly sourcing our electric power is a critical milestone in advancing Zimmer Biomet’s longstanding commitment to sustainability, and we hope our efforts inspire local area businesses and residents to join the EPA’s Green Power Program to collectively reduce our region’s environmental footprint,” global operations and logistics senior veep Robin Barney said in a press release.

In August, Zimmer Biomet said it paid an unspecified amount to acquire CD Diagnostics and its line of immunoassay and biomarker products.

Four years ago, the duo inked a pact that led to the development and marketing of the Synovasure periprosthetic joint infection test, Zimmer Biomet said.
