ENGIE and Mölnlycke Expand Partnership on Energy Transition to Reach Global Net Zero
ENGIE, a global provider of low-carbon energy and services, has partnered with Mölnlycke, a world-leading medical products and solutions company, to support the latter’s transition to becoming a global leader in sustainable healthcare.
ENGIE will provide low-carbon energy expertise to Mölnlycke’s operations worldwide, starting with the surgical glove manufacturing operations in Malaysia.
The companies have entered into a 15-year, low-carbon energy and services partnership to support Mölnlycke’s new mid- and long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets.
The initiative will leverage ENGIE’s advisory and utilities-as-a-service model to deliver thermal oil, chilled water, iced water, and compressed air utilities, along with rooftop solar to reduce Mölnlycke’s Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030.

As of the end of 2022, this target has already been achieved for eight out of 14 of Mölnlycke’s plants, achieving a cumulative total of over 60% renewable electricity share.
