Reducing our environmental
impact

We are both part of the natural world and dependent on it. Even though we're a software company, we're acutely aware of the impact our activities have on the environment. Our main goal is to mitigate that impact, decrease our emissions and encourage people around us to contribute to our goal.

Как мы защищаем нашу планету

Устойчивыеобъекты

Место, где мы работаем, имеет значение. Мы сосредоточены на увеличении доли возобновляемых источников энергии, используемых в наших офисах, и внедряем рациональное использование наших ресурсов.

  • 100% наших офисов разделяют отходы и перерабатывают их
  • 90% наших офисов используют автоматизацию для охлаждения и обогрева зданий с помощью таймеров и термостатов
  • Сокращение использования бумаги на 95% – мы резко сократили использование принтеров в период с 2019 по 2022 год и сохранили эти показатели на низком уровне в 2023 году

Transport

ESET is striving to be accountable and transparent – we voluntarily include our employees‘ commutes and working from home figures in our carbon footprint. We will focus on implementing new best practices in car fleet, business trips, and employee awareness.

  • 247 employees participated in a regular global Bike to Work 2024 campaign to support ecological mobility
  • 4,160 journeys were registered by employees during the 2024 campaign, in total it makes 25,667 kilometers walked and cycled
  • 150 g/km is the specific emission limit enforced when purchasing new passenger vehicles

Energy efficiency and hardware

We’re an IT company – we rely on hardware, so we take care of it. We focus on efficient IT equipment, decreasing e-waste and using sustainable data centers.

  • External data centers have near-zero emissions in 2023 with 100% renewable energy
  • 100% of our offices discard technology in an ecological way
  • 496 pieces of personal hardware re-sold to employees or donated to NGOs, schools or kindergardens, which makes 99% of discarded hardware in Slovakia in 2023
  • 7 years of active ERG – Eco ambassadors at HQ
  • 20% of employees participate and engage with content during global campaigns
  • 841 volunteering hours spent on eco activities and improving our local environment

We raise awareness

At ESET, we support active employee engagement in environmental protection topics. We consider education and awareness-raising to be an important factor contributing to positive social change. We gather employees' opinions around the world through ERGs and ESET Environmental Council.

Progress in the physical world

Our new headquarters in Central Europe will become a global center of excellence for digital security, AI and innovation.

Redeveloped urban site

We are redeveloping an urban site and creating a living place that will turn this part of the city into an epicenter of innovation and creativity in Bratislava. In addition to the new headquarters and ESET's global research center, the Campus will create a unique and stimulating environment for IT and technology companies and startups, and connect them with technically oriented universities.

Sustainable technology and materials

We will ensure that our Campus houses the latest technologies, clever and efficient solutions to achieve the highest levels of sustainability.

The highest environmental standards

We will aim for a carbon neutral campus operation, but we’ve got an ambition to also reduce the embodied carbon by building it in the most sustainable way possible.

Water conservation techniques

Water conservation techniques are a crucial aspect of the plans for our Campus.

Biodiverse landscape

It's important for us to work with the existing biodiverse landscape to complement the surrounding area.
