Going Dark for the Planet: How Earth Hour Can Inspire Lasting Change for XY Sense, Corporate Real Estate, and Workplace Technology

Shining a Light on Environmental Responsibility

As we recognise Earth Hour 2023, the importance of sustainability and environmental responsibility is at the forefront of our minds at XY Sense. Earth Hour is a global event that encourages individuals and businesses to turn off their lights for one hour in a symbolic gesture of support for the planet. However, our commitment to sustainability extends beyond this hour and is an integral part of our daily operations and the value we deliver to our global customers.

Sustainability Beyond Earth Hour 2023

At XY Sense, we are committed to creating a strong culture of sustainability that helps generate positive environmental outcomes for all stakeholders. The impact we make defines our success. We measure success by reducing our carbon footprint, conserving energy, and using environmentally-friendly materials while enabling more productive and enjoyable office spaces thanks to our deep data insights. Our commitment to sustainability is integrated into our company and products’ DNA. 

We engineer and design our product to preserve privacy and reduce the built environment’s environmental footprint. Our Sense-Link solution is a leading example of this. We are also committed to working with suppliers, whether that be via in-office catering with social enterprises or reducing packaging with our manufacturing partners, to promote highly sustainable social and environmental outcomes for all.  

Today, sustainability is a way of life for our team at XY Sense and not just about our product or the celebration of this annual symbolic event. One of our leading causes for team celebration over the past year has been hearing and supporting a top UK customer to reduce their energy consumption thanks to our sensors and analytics insights. The corporate real estate environment accounts for 40% of global carbon emissions. Our mission as an organization is to enable a more sustainable future whilst connecting people, productivity, and place for the betterment of all. 

Towards a Sustainable Future

As we approach Earth Hour 2023, we will be taking stock of our progress toward sustainability and setting new goals for the future. Creating a sustainable future is a long-term commitment that requires ongoing effort and investment. However, the benefits of a strong culture of sustainability are clear. By prioritizing sustainability in our daily operations, we can help generate positive environmental outcomes that benefit all stakeholders and the built environment.
