As a part of the NetZero Supplier Roadmap, new requirements will be introduced overseeing the provision of a carbon footprint for individual products supplied to the NHS. As part of this commitment, the NHS is working towards creating a sustainable supply chain, which includes requiring suppliers to provide Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) and Environmental Declarations for their products. With this context, NHS aims to work with suppliers and regulators to determine the scope and methodology. This initiative will help suppliers to reduce the environmental impact of healthcare products and services, ensuring that sustainability is embedded at every stage of the supply chain.​
