SUSTAINABILITY

Big impact, small carbon footprint.

Everything we do here at SOZO is designed to have a positive impact.

Whether it’s going to meetings, hosting our websites, making a cuppa, or switching off our Macs, we try to do our bit for the planet. We go above and beyond the norm to create sustainable websites with eco-friendly web design and carbon neutral web hosting, through to using 100% renewable energy in our office.

Proud to be B Corp certified

SOZO is very proud to be a B Corp certified company. B Corp very much aligns with our ethos here at SOZO. We’ve always strived to be an environmentally positive and ethical company. We have many green initiatives including getting our hands dirty planting trees. Our design and development teams are also working hard to produce low carbon, eco friendly websites.

Conscious about your carbon footprint? Check out our eco-mode.

We have developed our very own eco-mode which allows you to view our website in an even more sustainable way than it already is. By making some simple adjustments such as stripping out some of our imagery, animations and visual enhancements, it will lower your carbon footprint whilst using our site.

Our Work

did you know? did you know?

78% of consumers say they value sustainability.

We are seeing changing patterns of consumption within all sectors of the economy. Workers are evaluating the companies they might work for in the same way that they evaluate the companies they buy from. This effect is more pronounced the younger the generation. For example, 53% of the UK’s workforce say sustainability is an important factor in choosing a company to work for.
