Environmental, Social & Governance
Built to last. Built responsibly.
Airfree Group's commitment to sustainability is structural, not cosmetic. We embed environmental responsibility, social equity, and rigorous governance into every decision — from how we run compute to how we build partnerships.
ESG commitments & targets
Environment
Reducing our footprint while enabling the spatial data infrastructure that supports better environmental decision-making worldwide.
Cloud Efficiency by Design
Workloads are allocated to the most energy-efficient compute tier available. Autoscaling policies are designed to cut idle capacity substantially across production clusters.
Renewable Energy Transition
We are contracting renewable energy certificates toward a target of 100% renewable electricity for data-centre consumption by end of 2026.
Hardware Lifecycle
End-of-life servers are refurbished and redistributed to partner institutions before certified e-waste disposal, under a zero-landfill hardware policy.
Carbon Neutral by 2030
A pathway to verified emissions reductions across Scope 1 & 2, with a Scope 3 supplier engagement programme and a high-integrity offset portfolio for residual emissions.
Social
Building inclusive teams, contributing open data to under-resourced communities, and growing the next generation of spatial technologists.
Workforce Diversity
Targets: 40% women in technical roles and 30% under-represented groups in senior leadership by 2027, with progress reported annually.
Community Mapping
The Airfree Community Mapping Programme is designed to produce open cadastral datasets for underserved municipalities across Sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia.
Open Data Initiatives
Processed geospatial data published under open licences on our public data portal, enabling independent research and civic applications.
Education Partnerships
An education-partnership programme for universities — providing API access, cloud credits, and mentored internship pathways for GIS and CS students.
Governance
Transparent reporting, accountable leadership structures, and ethical supply chains — because trust is earned through conduct, not claims.
Transparency Reports
Airfree intends to publish annual ESG disclosures aligned to GRI Standards, to have financial statements independently audited, and to report data-request statistics — building this reporting cadence as the company matures.
Board Diversity
The board is structured to be majority-independent, with gender balance as a governance commitment. Skills matrix reviewed annually against strategic risk.
Supply Chain Ethics
All vendors above AUD $50k are screened against our Supplier Code of Conduct covering labour rights, environmental management, and anti-corruption.
Executive ESG Accountability
ESG KPIs are built into executive remuneration. A dedicated ESG Committee reports directly to the board on a quarterly basis.
