Our Commitment, Corporate Responsibility and ESG

At Elanco, our business has always been driven by a greater purpose: a belief that, through animals, we can tackle some of the world's most pressing issues.


Driving Sustainable Change

Healthy animals are the key to a more sustainable future for the people and the planet. As a leading animal health company, we are committed to do our part in addressing global challenges.

Elanco's sustainability commitments, the first of its kind in the animal health industry, advance the world’s wellbeing while supporting and strengthening our own business. It all starts with a healthy, strong enterprise driven by the growth, innovation and margin expansion agenda we are executing against. Through these efforts, Elanco is focused on creating value for our customers, employees, shareholders and society as a whole.
