ABBOTT PARK, Ill., Sept. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Our goal at Abbott is not just to help people live their best lives through life-changing technology – it's also to make this important work sustainable for the future.

Where Life-Changing Technology Meets Sustainability

For us, sustainability is about applying the power of our business to drive positive economic, social and environmental impact – making sure that the work we do helps people live healthier and better, both today and for generations to come. For a comprehensive look at our economic, social and environmental progress and performance, check out our newly published 2017 Global Sustainability Report:

But for a quick view of our sustainability work, look no further than our pioneering technologies, including the FreeStyle Libre^®system. Most people don't think of a diabetes monitor when they think about sustainability – but at the intersection of technology and sustainability, you'll find the FreeStyle Libre system.
