Green Communication—A Polycom Commitment to the Planet

Contact Polycom

With Polycom HD telepresence, video, and voice solutions travel is reduced, carbon emissions are reduced—and everyone wins. In fact, unified communications (UC) solutions are changing the way organizations communicate—and that's a good thing for our planet. Although we may be geographically distant from our fellow workers, customers, and partners, we no longer have to travel to be effective. Thanks to UC technology we can meet virtually anytime and from anywhere.

Consider this: Every time two people meet over video instead of traveling roundtrip—for example, between LA and New York—they save the carbon emissions that would be the equivalent of taking one car off the road for a year.* (Source: Conservation International)

Our dedication to a greener planet is as simple as 1-2-3

One, we build green products

Our products are compatible with renewable energy from diverse sources. We strive to continually improve energy consumption. Our products are RoHS- and WEEE- compliant.

Two, we show customers how they can be greener on day one with our solutions

With our innovative going green with Polycom three step methodology, Polycom in concert with our authorized partners helps customers benchmark video readiness; implement systems ensuring service quality and operational efficiency; and track and report video call savings in travel miles, cost of travel, carbon depletion, and system usage.

Three, as a global company located in forty countries, we minimize our own environmental impact

Polycom strives to continually reduce our carbon impact. We conserve natural resources, recycle whenever possible, and mandate usage of our own solutions in place of travel. Further, we encourage our employees to reduce personal emissions using Polycom technologies in the office and their homes.
