About Vistaprint

Vistaprint is always looking into the latest technologies and building amenities that can help reduce the company’s carbon footprint across the globe. As an example, the servers in the Bermuda data center were converted to more energy-efficient models in 2007, and the company moved to a vitalized platform that also cut down on the amount of energy and cooling needed to run the machines. This effort reduced energy usage by 75% and has cut the company’s carbon dioxide emissions by several hundred tons in the first year alone. The company is also researching environmentally friendly options for future construction projects, including LEED certification, utilising rainwater and other elemental factors for building maintenance.

Vistaprint utilises natural light in all five of the company’s global locations. This design not only brightens the work spaces of the company’s employees but also enables Vistaprint to reduce the amount of artificial light used. The company’s printing plants, for example, are outfitted with numerous skylights and the printing and building management systems utilize the latest technologies, which require minimal energy. When Vistaprint was looking for locations for the company’s North American printing operations, Windsor, Canada proved to be an ideal location in part because of the area’s reliance on hydroelectric power, which is very environmentally friendly.
