Our websites are designed for fast loading speeds and minimal resource usage, reducing energy consumption.
We implement lightweight coding practices, optimise images, and use efficient CSS/JavaScript frameworks to decrease power consumption.
We encourage dark mode options, which reduce energy usage on OLED screens.
3. Remote Work & Carbon Footprint Reduction
As a digital-first business, we operate remotely, reducing the need for office space and associated energy consumption.
We use cloud-based collaboration tools instead of paper-based processes.
We promote virtual meetings over travel whenever possible to reduce our carbon footprint.

We encourage businesses to use green-certified hosting providers and minimise unnecessary digital waste.
We perform sustainability audits to identify areas where websites can reduce energy consumption.
While we are making progress in reducing our environmental impact, there are key areas where we can improve:

Ensure that all client websites are hosted on AWS green-certified regions.
Partner with other sustainable hosting providers as additional options for clients.
