Environment: reducing our environmental footprint
Data4 is fully committed to reducing its environmental impact. Data4 Environment covers 7 key actions taken by the company, with ambitious targets for 2030.
Through this approach, Data4 is committed to a process of continuous improvement, with rigorous monitoring of an environmental roadmap.
Data4 is also a member of the Planet Tech Care initiative, which brings together responsible digital players.
We want to be an exemplary player and involve both our customers and our partners, because it is together that we will succeed in solving the digital/environmental equation.
Designing, building and ensuring the operation of our data centers while reducing their environmental impact is an exciting and necessary challenge we are working on with many Data4 employees and long-standing providers.

We are committed to helping our customers along their low-carbon pathway
It is important for Data4 to ensure our actions to reduce our environmental impact are effective. It is equally important to provide our clients with indicators to help them follow the same path.
With this in mind, Data4 has developed the Green Dashboard to help customers track their GHG emissions and the environmental footprint of their hosting space and equipment throughout its lifecycle.
