Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change
We recognise that digitalisation has an important role to play in the transition to a climate-smart society, while IT companies such as Advania have a responsibility to help minimise the negative climate impact that the use of IT entails.

We focus on taking responsibility for our own operations as well as influencing Buyers on all call-off contracts under the framework to make more sustainable choices, for example moving away from the linear IT Hardware model of produce, use and dispose to a more circular approach including responsible reuse-and-recycle procedures at the end of the hardware lifecycle.

Carbon Emissions: We are committed to continuous reduction of our carbon footprint. Our Environmental Policy includes provisions around minimising our emissions by a smart approach to travel and printing, lowering the use of electricity, water, heating, and promoting climate change and sustainability charity/community work. We are aiming to reduce this by 5% over the next year and are committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.

Hybrid Working: We have implemented 80% working from home policy for all employees. Where needed/agreed with the Buyers, Advania resources will be working onsite.

Travel: We encourage staff to use technology wherever possible. Where travel to the client site is required, we will require all staff to consider alternative transport options and optimise car sharing.

Reducing IT waste: Our Equipment Recycling Policy ensures hardware devices like laptops and desktops are managed throughout their lifecycle. When devices are replaced, they are either transferred to our recycling centre or donated to local charities post data sanitisation.

Sustainability Training: Our proactive approach towards environmental stewardship incorporates training on sustainable practices at all operational levels. We actively raise staff awareness through online training on environmental impacts and sustainability benefits.
