In a world where it feels like the mercury is slowly, steadily rising all the time, helping keep people cool is a truly valiant act. And it’s all the better if you can do that in a way that has minimal impact on the environment, like this year’s winner of the Smart50 Sustainability Award, Coolzy.com.
Sustainability was baked in to Coolzy’s mission statement from the company’s inception, with its portable air-conditioning units using up to 75% less energy than conventional cooling systems, helping reduce their effect on the environment.
However, Coolzy has taken additional steps to reduce the size of its eco-footprint at every stage of the journey from production to disposal, such as its thoughtful packaging solutions. All packaging materials are made from 100% recycled and compostable materials, reducing waste and supporting a more sustainable product lifecycle.
Coolzy’s green agenda also includes forming strategic partnerships with local businesses, governments, and NGOs to promote sustainable cooling solutions and broaden its market reach. It is also searching for ways and means to improve supply-chain processes and invest in carbon offset programs to reduce its environmental impact.
One method of supporting climate action is through its tree-planting initiative. The company plants one tree for every Coolzy unit sold, and to date, more than 30,000 trees have been planted. This initiative helps offset carbon emissions, supports reforestation, and contributes to the restoration of natural habitats, reinforcing the company’s commitment to positive environmental practices.
Coolzy is also looking to spread the sustainability message through customer engagement and foster an eco-conscious community by educating consumers on energy-efficient cooling through marketing campaigns and interactive platforms.
The company’s focus on reducing energy consumption, using eco-friendly materials, and actively contributing to climate initiatives demonstrates a consistent and responsible approach to environmental stewardship, making its Smart50 Sustainability Award well-deserved.
Coolzy also placed 40th in this year’s Smart50 list.
