TOURYOOX Group Eco-Policy
YOOX Group pro-actively encourages saving energy, raising awareness in order to achieve sustainable development. The company has implemented a variety of preventive measures for reducing pollution and environmental impact. A number of these eco-sustainable policies are part of YOOX Group’s ECO-SUSTAINABLE GUIDELINES, a manual that aims to promote good environmental practices among employees to save energy and resources. Choosing the right means of transportation also plays an important role in an ecological and eco-compatible lifestyle, which is why YOOX Group encourages using trains for work-related travel. With the same logic of optimizing costs and being environmentally responsible, the company has also introduced forms of teleconferencing (e.g., video conferences, web meetings, etc.). For employees travelling to and between offices, YOOX Group has activated a car sharing programme that allows workers to reserve a spot in a fellow employee’s car, a system with benefits in terms of emissions and consumption. All vehicles of the new company car fleet have hybrid engines in order to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
Another important action YOOX Group has taken was opting for a renewable energy source for its offices in Italy in a partnership with Lifegate, the only provider of this RECS International (Renewable Energy Certificate System) certified service with Zero Impact® on the environment.
