Server Warehouse (Pty) Ltd – Sustainability Commitment
At Server Warehouse, we recognise that sustainability is not optional but a core responsibility. As a South African supplier of enterprise servers, networking equipment, and related infrastructure, we understand the environmental impact of our industry and the importance of conducting our business in a responsible and sustainable manner.
Our approach is based on three priorities: reducing our environmental footprint, promoting ethical business practices, and ensuring long-term value creation for our customers, suppliers, and community.
Environmental Responsibility
- Energy efficiency: We prioritise sourcing and supplying hardware with recognised energy-efficient designs to help customers lower electricity usage and reduce operating costs.
- Product lifecycle management: We support the re-use of enterprise hardware through refurbished products, extending product lifespans and reducing e-waste.
- Responsible packaging: We are reducing the use of plastics and adopting recyclable or biodegradable packaging materials.
- Logistics efficiency: We work with delivery partners to consolidate shipments where possible, reducing the environmental impact of transport.
Supply Chain and Ethical Sourcing
As a distributor and reseller, our responsibilities extend to our suppliers and manufacturers. We favour partners who comply with recognised environmental and product-safety standards and who demonstrate responsible labour and business practices.
Our Operations
We are committed to reducing our own energy consumption in offices and warehouses by using efficient equipment, responsible cooling, and waste reduction measures. Where possible, we make use of renewable energy and recycling services within South Africa.
Social and Community Commitment
- Maintaining fair and safe working conditions for all employees.
- Training staff to adopt responsible practices in their daily work.
- Supporting local initiatives that promote digital access and responsible disposal of electronic waste.
Accountability and Continuous Improvement
Sustainability is a journey. We are measuring, tracking, and improving our performance in areas such as packaging reduction, waste management, and the proportion of energy-efficient products in our catalogue. Over time, we will publish updates on our progress and set measurable targets for improvement.
