Lighting the way to a climate-positive future: Phos and Reewild
Phos has a simple but potent mission - to engineer sustainable light. As an award-winning British architectural lighting manufacturer, we already strive to be the best in all aspects of our business. With a clear aim to take all steps possible to mitigate climate change, the team has worked tirelessly to reduce the emissions of our operations. And thanks to our partnership with Reewild, we have also invested beyond the value chain, in both our employees and the natural environment.
Building a Climate Positive Culture
Working with Reewild, we have funded reforestation projects that underpin the business's sustainability narrative. Alongside our investment, Reewild has provided all of Phos’ employees with the tools to make more sustainable choices in their day-to-day while also inspiring collective climate action.
Together, we:
-
Fund Eden Reforestation projects
-
We now fund tree-planting programmes across the world, supporting projects in Brazil, Kenya, Mozambique, Nepal, and Madagascar.
-
The new forests will help to reverse climate change, global deforestation, and habitat loss for endangered species.
-
Eden Reforestation also follows a people-first approach, focusing on giving back to the local communities that have been highly impacted by the climate crisis. The success of each project and the communities’ success are inextricably entwined. We are supporting not just tree planting but the long-term restoration of both community and forest.
-
Inspire individual sustainability
-
To truly build a Climate Positive Culture, it is vital to put employees at the foundation of sustainability goals. With access to Reewild’s first-of-its-kind carbon tracking app, our team is empowered to make sustainable choices to mitigate the worst effects of climate change.
-
The app builds a community through its gamification and competition features, which help encourage collective action. With everyone involved, we can create lasting behaviour change and embed sustainability into the fabric of the business, helping to accelerate progress towards internal sustainability goals.
Investing both in the now and the future
We are leading change in our sector by taking responsibility for our holistic environmental impact. By investing funds in global restoration efforts and taking action on the everyday behaviours of our team, we are hoping to light the way to a future with sustainability at the core of every company’s culture.
