Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
Synergy is focused on creating a more environmentally and socially sustainable world through everything we do. We strive to act ethically and responsibly, reducing our impact on the planet and enhancing the wellbeing of our staff and the communities we work in.
A Net Zero Carbon Firm
We partner with a specialist firm Alectro.io to collect and analyse data across our operations and supply chain. This helps us accurately measure our carbon footprint, supported by a company-wide energy policy to minimize emissions. We are among the few in our industry to measure and publicly report our emissions on a per-employee basis, providing a clear picture of our environmental impact.

After reducing our emissions through efficiency and behavioural changes, we purchase carbon credits to neutralize our remaining footprint which made us carbon neutral in 2024.
Our employees have a say in selecting the carbon offsetting projects we support. These are Gold Standard verified projects which advance the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
The projects we currently support are:
We recognise the complexities involved in using carbon offsets but view it as an essential measure to mitigate our environmental impact while we work diligently to implement emission reduction strategies. Our dedication lies in addressing climate change head-on, ensuring that offsets are used responsibly and transparently, only after thorough planning and efforts to minimize our carbon footprint.
