Our Commitments - For Health

Global expertise, personal touch

Gustave Roussy Institute - Villejuif, France

Contributing to global health and safety and protecting the environment are commitments of all Eurofins companies. 

In the continuity of Pink October and in line with Eurofins’ values, Eurofins Cosmetics & Personal Care is pleased to support an initiative by Gustave Roussy, leading European Cancer Center by contributing to a specific project concerning breast cancer. Women over 60 with localised cancer can now undergo their radiotherapy treatment within five days, instead of over three to five weeks. This is a first in terms of care and organisation: this 5-day radiotherapy course is based on hypofractionated and personalised radiation therapy and new technologies (artificial intelligence, scripted dosimetry, etc.) that make it possible to compress the preparation time for sessions and reduce the number needed.

All laboratories in our Cosmetics & Personal Care business line have joined forces to contribute to the wellbeing of women by creating a warm, pleasant and relaxing space.

 

Children's Hospice Sternenbrücke - Hamburg, Germany

According to estimates, there are around 50,000 children, adolescents and young adults living in Germany who suffer from illnesses or disabilities that directly or indirectly reduce their life expectancy. In order to provide those young people and their families with the greatest possible support on their difficult journey, the Children's Hospice Sternenbrücke started as a pilot project in Hamburg in May 2003 . The institution offers respite care to families and bereavement support after the loss of their child.
“We cannot add additional days to a life, however, we can bring more life to those days.”

Instead of sending paper cards at Christmas time, Eurofins Consumer Product Testing makes a donation to support the hospice, which is solely dependent on the financial contributions of third parties.
