satis&fy goes online with its commitment to sustainability
satis&fy AG Deutschland (satis&fy) has gone online with a new web presence. The event production company set up the new website at http://showgreen.satis-fy.com to let people know about its commitment to sustainability. With this site, satis&fy aims to share with customers and interested readers the various options for staging more eco-friendly events. It also describes best practices and the concrete measures that are being applied in the real world to offset the considerable resources consumed by such events.
“Sustainability is a topic with a future," notes satis&fy CEO Nico Ubenauf. “With our new website, we want to show what we are doing today and want to do tomorrow, and where we have already gone green and where we still need to do so. Although sustainability and technical support for events are not compatible on all levels, there are many possibilities to make events more eco-friendly," adds Ubenauf. Some examples of greener ways to stage events are featured under the heading Good Events. The Good and Green section shows how satis&fy is reducing waste, power consumption, the use of chemically treated fabrics, and its fleet’s kilometer count to leave a smaller carbon footprint. Sponsoring cultural events and art has long been a big part of the company’s CSR (corporate social responsibility) philosophy. The pages under the heading Good Deeds describe projects that the company co-sponsored by providing materials, equipment, and personnel support. The Good News section presents newsworthy developments in high-end equipment, the green lifestyle, investments in new, eco-friendly material and energy-efficient equipment, as well as events that convey the green spirit. The Partners pages showcase the organizations that satis&fy looks to for inspiration.
“We decided to go with a new web presence that stands apart from the original website because this would give us more room to present the many different topics and talk about our commitment," notes Ubenauf declares. According to satis&fy’s CEO, Show Green is an honest and unambiguous pledge to more sustainable practices, and not some heavy-handed attempt at green-washing. “Sustainability is all about taking small steps – walking the walk rather than just talking the talk," adds Ubenauf. The new website stands as a testament to such small steps.
