Are your customers shifting to other more sustainable competitors?. Together, we will make your business the sustainable alternative to your competitors, rather than the other way around.

What is sustainability design?

Contents

When designing for sustainability, we are focusing on the impact your service is having on the environment and the society. By incorporating the triple bottom line perspective — that is, People, Planet, and Profit — we look beyond the value delivered to end users and take into consideration all aspects of the solution.

We look at not only what is delivered, but how it is done. Such an approach allows us to define and design tailored solutions and recommendations that will help you generate a unique and sustainable value proposition for existing or future customers.

Why is sustainable design important to business?

With the increased focus on sustainability and urgent actions required to limit and neutralize our impact on the environment, businesses need to change the way they are looking at resources. They need to measure and understand the footprint and impact of their activity.

A business that ignores the importance of sustainability is not going to be a brand of choice to customers seeking services and products aligned with their values. Sustainability design will help you make educated decisions on how to efficiently and consciously run and grow your business.

How does a business design for sustainability?

When designing a new solution or redesigning an existing one, businesses are taking into consideration many aspects related to the user experience, value to the end user, the look and feel and other characteristics that define a successful product or service.

With sustainability design those elements are expanded to include the social and environmental impact of the discussed solution. Such a shift of focus allows businesses to make more conscious decisions at the design phase and results in efficient and competitive solutions.

How can we help you with innovative solutions for sustainability?

Our sustainability design consultants will provide tailored solutions and recommendations that will help you generate a unique and sustainable value proposition for the existing or potential customers.

Netguru's sustainability design consultancy has been successfully tested in numerous projects and irrespective of the challenge, our experts will provide an actionable roadmap for solution development or prevalidated prototype that will take into account the business and sustainability needs.
