Paxton is Officially Carbon Neutral

Security technology manufacturer Paxton becomes carbon neutral certified in the UK, France, Germany, and South Africa.

Paxton has measured its first ever carbon footprint and embarked on a clear and focussed reduction plan to improve its impact on the environment. Working with Carbon Footprint Ltd to ensure accurate data reporting, Paxton recorded a total of 2,541 tCO₂e produced in 2022, equivalent to approximately 1,550 economy return flights from Heathrow to New York.

While introducing several operational changes that reduce carbon, Paxton has invested in three global projects that actively prevent carbon from reaching the atmosphere and that best reflect its company values – helping to provide safe water at a project in Zambia and investing in solar and wind farms in Thailand and India.

Adam Stroud, CEO at Paxton, said: “Limiting our impact on the environment is important to everyone at Paxton and we know it matters to our customers too. This is the first step on our journey to become a net zero company, something we plan to do well in advance of the 2050 limit. We are all focussed and working hard to make the right environmentally conscious decisions to achieve this.”

Paxton has already made some significant changes to how it operates both prior to, and in direct response to, its carbon footprint report. This includes switching global shipping of product component from air freight to vastly more efficient and low carbon sea freight. Paxton’s 2022 carbon footprint report identified that nearly 57% of emissions produced came from upstream air freight so this has been an important adjustment.

Paxton also now runs all its UK buildings on 100% renewable energy tariffs and has invested in solar panels for the new Paxton Electronics Centre.

Other changes include a review of its travel policy to ensure mindful and economical business travel, incentivising their team to make greener choices. Currently 98% of all Paxton company vehicles are electric or hybrid with a goal to reach 100% as soon as possible.

Paxton is also proud to sponsor the Freedom Flight, an initiative dedicated to accelerating the development of the first zero carbon 100+ seater passenger flight from London to New York. This autumn, the Paxton team are invited to take part in planting a tree for every employee globally. Paxton’s journey to net zero is being driven by its Green Team, a group of employees fully trained on carbon literacy. Their efforts coincide with the release of its Environmental Policy earlier this year.
