With an eye on ocean health, Garmin’s EMEA marine segment director, Pontus Fernstrom, outlines the steps the company is taking to reduce its environmental impact. “If we don’t do this, there might not be nice water to be in in a few years,” Fernstrom says of Garmin’s efforts to shrink its footprint while expanding its operations through multiple acquisitions. He highlights the company’s packaging improvements, noting a “drastic” reduction in plastic use and the elimination of 90 per cent of foam within product boxes. Fernstrom adds, “We have packages as small as possible with drastically reduced plastic. 30 per cent is reused plastic.” #marineindustry #business #sustainability #marketing #enviroment #packaging #company Keep up to date with the latest industry news.

Imagine a world where your ride adapts to you, instead of the other way around. Yeah, we’re talking about custommobility.net—a game-changer that’s shaking up the mobility industry more than a double shot of espresso on a Monday morning. At first, you might be thinking, Really? Customized mobility? But trust me, one step onto this never-seen-before platform, and you'll question why you ever put up with cookie-cutter solutions. 👀 Here's why you should care: - **Personalization that spoils you rotten:** Finally, something in your life that's tailor-made, unlike your 'ready-to-assemble' furniture. - **Unrivaled Accessibility:** No more giving your mobility the side-eye. It’s inclusive, it’s considerate, it’s about time. - **Breath of Fresh Air:** This isn't your grandfather's wheelchair or your cousin’s scooter. It's practical luxury without the pretentiousness. But of course, if you’re still married to the one-size-fits-all mentality, then by all means, carry on. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. 😉 Time to cruise the way you deserve. https://lnkd.in/emdgfXDV #CustomMobility #Innovation #AccessibilityRevolution #TailoredExperience #BossMoves

Happy International Day Of Light! 💫 Light is one of the absolute necessities we, as humans, need to be able to live. Likewise, light is one of the absolute necessities we, as a shipping industry, need to be able to operate. But it's the right light, and it's quality, that determines how sustainable our operations are. The necessity of quality lighting in maritime operations has always been paramount. But as fluorescent lamps are banned, numerous regulations and legislations are coming about, and more focus is being put on crew wellbeing, the importance of it's quality is undeniably increasing. Thus, the need for reliable, efficient lighting is coming ever-more to the forefront of shipping companies priorities and steps to successful, sustainable operations - especially as the need to upgrade to LED is more pressing than ever. Quality lighting onboard your vessels = Regulation compliance, game-changing energy-savings, minimised emissions, reduction in maintenance costs and exceptional quality of environments for your crew to operate successfully - to name just a few benefits. Overall, it plays a crucial roll in sustainable operations, for years to come. With a lack in quality, however, all these benefits are either very short-lived, or entirely reversed. Here at RLT Marine, we eat, sleep and breath lighting, because we know it's importance - and it's impact. Our core reason for being is to provide the highest quality, most sustainable, award-winning LED lighting solutions, to the shipping industry. And we're proud to have helped out numerous prominent shipping companies across the globe, in transforming their operations, through upgrade to LED lighting. You can read our latest case study here: https://lnkd.in/ers4T4Kj 💡 So, on this International Day Of Light, we invite you to take a few minutes to consider just how much impact your choices in lighting onboard your vessels can have on your fleet operations...

🌍🌱 This Earth Day, we at AOC are proud to reflect on the sustainable strides we've made at our workspace. 🌎♻ 🌿 At work, we embrace a digital-first approach. Platforms like Notion, have allowed us to go completely paperless and remove energy-intensive infrastructure at work. It allows for digital organisation, integration and automation, reduced hardware dependency amidst other seamless collaboration-facilitating features. ♻️ We implemented a BYOL (Bring Your Own Lunchbox) initiative at work. Employees are encouraged to bring their food from home, or bring containers from home for takeaways - anything to minimise plastic and paper waste on the daily. 🍱 💡 Additionally, our smart office setup employs only energy-efficient appliances. Our smart lighting system in particular has been a mindful feature as it allows us to switch off lights remotely from our mobile phones, reducing energy consumption. 📱💡 At AOC, sustainability is not just a practice but is a principle we hold dear. 🌎♻️ #gogreen #banplastic #happyearthday #sustainableworkplace #earthfriendly #reducereuserecycle #corporateresposiblility #energyefficiency #smartoffice

“Sustainability is not about compromise. At Viva Esprit we work with clients to create unforgettable experiences for their guests that are also mindfully sustainable.” Nadine Fenton, Managing Director. Small changes can make a huge impact. For all of our clients we encourage reusing and recycling wherever possible, implementing a ‘digital first’ approach to delegate communications via apps rather than printing, and sustainable travel. 🌳 But implementing sustainable strategies for your events doesn’t create a ‘fun vacuum’. In fact, it can be quite the opposite. We’ve introduced lots of fun touches along the way, such as offering environment friendly teambuilding, or using seeded paper for name badges that can be planted to support biodiversity. Sourcing the finest local foods for a gala dinner menu in for many events so far. #sustainability #sustainableevent #eventprofs #eventexperts #climateimpact #carbonfootprint #earthday
