LAKEWOOD, Colo, March 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mesa Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ:MLAB, “Mesa” “we” “our” or the “Company”), a global leader in the design and manufacture of life science tools and critical quality control solutions, today announced the release of its second annual Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") Program Brochure. Rooted in Mesa’s unwavering commitment to Protecting the Vulnerable®, this brochure highlights the Company’s continued strides in environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and corporate governance.

The latest edition of Mesa’s ESG Program Brochure is marked by two updates from the past fiscal year, signifying a new chapter in the Company’s sustainability journey. In October 2023, Mesa acquired GKE, a German-based sterilization indicators business renowned for its robust organizational culture dedicated to positively impacting the environment. This strategic addition aligns seamlessly with Mesa’s mission and expands the Company’s global footprint while contributing to a sustainable future.

Notably, Mesa has further fortified its commitment to transparency and environmental responsibility by incorporating greenhouse gas emissions Scope 1 and 2 data into the brochure. This comprehensive approach underscores Mesa’s dedication to addressing climate change and ensuring accountability in its operations.

"Companies should be a net positive for the world. Our purpose of Protecting the Vulnerable® extends beyond our focus on improving patient care. Often susceptible to harm and inequalities, the vulnerable also includes our employees, the communities where we operate, and the earth that must be preserved for generations to come. To truly fulfill our purpose, our processes and activities should be managed in a sustainable manner," emphasized Gary Owens, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Mesa.
Mesa’s commitment to environmental sustainability, people and communities, and corporate governance is deeply ingrained in its corporate culture, starting from a Board of Directors that sets the tone for responsible business practices. The Company’s ESG Taskforce, comprising cross-functional leaders, propels Mesa forward in its initiatives, ensuring a comprehensive and impactful approach.

The second annual ESG Program Brochure builds on the success of the inaugural edition, offering stakeholders a qualitative glimpse into Mesa’s journey toward sustainability. By Protecting the Vulnerable® not only through innovative life science tools but also through responsible corporate practices, Mesa Laboratories stands at the forefront of positive global change.
