Road to Net Zero

There is no escaping the fact that we need to change - and soon. To reach the goal of Net Zero by 2050, we need to reduce our reliance on carbon-intensive materials and processes. We evaluated the advantages of taking your confidential print and post digital in research conducted with Project Rome's Simon Pringle, Associate Fellow Of Chatham House & Professor at University of Edinburgh.

What could you save?

Take our 2-minute online assessment to see how much carbon you could save by switching from post to secure email.

Time to change?

Switching a portion of your sensitive document output to secure email is an immediate step towards carbon output reduction, but it's not just the carbon cost that makes tracked post unsuited to sensitive information exchanges. Security, compliance, and efficiency are among the benefits of digital alternatives.
