Looking back at 2023, it is clear that climate challenges have become increasingly prominent on the agenda at Unilux. According to the communications department of the custom-made screen manufacturer from Boxtel, this is not surprising. “The impact of global warming is clearly visible. Think for example of the extreme weather conditions and the clear shift of the seasons. Our message is therefore: pick up the gauntlet. We certainly do!”
“In reducing our carbon footprint, we have made significant progress,” says Unilux. “We have been deliberately producing locally on a large scale for years as a step toward minimizing our ecological impact. After all, buying locally means fewer long transportation routes, which in turn leads to significant CO2 savings.”
“In 2023, we continued the ‘Protect Insects’ campaign,” shares Unilux. “With this we call for an end to the use of harmful pesticides, such as aerosols. Insects play a crucial role in a healthy ecosystem, but these products are still widely available. There are alternative methods to keep them at bay without harming the environment.”
This brings us to the importance of proper indoor ventilation. “Opening windows and doors regularly is crucial for a healthy living environment. However, due to the fear of high heating costs, people are reluctant to let fresh air in. We aim to make it clear that these concerns are not always well-founded and that the importance of ventilation should always come first.” Unilux is once again focusing on proclaiming this message to and through its dealers in 2024
