Being a manufacturing company, Bavarian Nordic is required by Danish law to prepare annual green accounts. In April 2009, the Company issued its third set of green accounts, which contain a detailed description of the environmental factors relating to the production of vaccines.

In its design and planning of the Kvistgård manufacturing facility, Bavarian Nordic focused on implementing cleaner technology through the development and adjustment of the technology used. Its efforts included a focus on reducing the environmental impact from production by reducing energy consumption as well as the use of subsidiary materials.
