Seeing sustainability as an ethical priority
Vision-Box aims to create a world where the best technological solutions positively impact organisations' security, safety, efficiency, and convenience, making people's lives better. However, this mission must be accomplished whilst ensuring the preservation of the environment and a tangible reduction of our carbon footprint.
Vision-Box is working towards a sustainable technological revolution
Our goal is to avoid the depletion of natural resources through ‘the pursuit of global environmental sustainability’ to maintain an ecological balance.
We aim to drive sustainability throughout the global supply chain by integrating it into the overall procurement process.
decrease in Air Shipments between 2020 and 2023
Decrease in CO2 emissions from shipping between 2021 and 2023.
Emissions Reporting
Our Emissions Reporting aims to measure the emissions produced by the combination of our activities. Such reports are able to identify factors that contribute to climate change and help outline subsequent policies to limit a negative impact on climate.
Emissions Reporting enables investors to guide their capital towards companies that are conscious of their impact on climate. It is an opportunity for businesses to be 100% transparent.
We are committed to achieving Carbon Neutral, through a continual improvement of environmental performance within our organization, to help protect our planet’s natural resources while working towards our own environmental objectives.
Vision-Box is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions so that the balance between emissions and removals from the atmosphere will be zero by 2050. By following the approval of the Basic Climate Law, Portugal has already anticipated the goal of climate neutrality by committing to assess it by 2045 or even earlier.
Vision-Box is committed to carrying out all reasonably practicable measures to continually improve our environmental performance.
Vision-Box continually seeks to improve the quality of our products and the services it provides understanding the needs and expectations of interested parties, the optimization of the resources available and the effectiveness of its Management System.
Vision-Box is committed to the well-being and safety of our employees in the development of its business, seeking to prevent and minimize the risk of accidents ad health conditions associated with work, as well as building a culture oriented towards safety and continuous improvement.
bluebiz Certificate
Vision-Box used blue credit points with the Air France/KLM program to pay back the planet for our carbon footprint in flights«, contributing to the "CO2OL Tropical Mix" reforestation project in Panamá. Over the last 12 months, with this project, we’ve compensated an estimative of 65 tones of CO2 emissions from air traveling.
Tackling Environmental Impacts
Electricity Consumption
Difficulty: High consumption
Solution: Gradual replacement of existing lighting by LED. Monthly monitoring of consumption. Verify the possibility of placing generation equipment (renewable) - solar thermal/photovoltaic panels.
Company Fleet
Difficulty: Fuel Consumption, emission of polluting gases, and electricity consumption.
Solution: Acquisition of 2 new electrical vehicles in 2021 with higher autonomy.
Waste Production
Difficulty: Production of composite and other plastic waste from equipment and packaging.
Solution: Study equipment characteristics and recycling ratio per product waste and sustainable supply chain design.
Reuse of plastics (e.g., polyethylene foam).
