3Fish

3Fish has been born out of a desire to create a commercially successful company, leveraging (but not replicating) previous experience in a manner that "does the right thing", that is something to be proud of, feel good about and have a bit of fun with. When our kids ask us about global warming, environmental degradation, child labour and sweatshops we would like to say that we did something to make a difference. "We would like to create a company that other people want to work for and be proud to be associated with, and presume that we will attract people with a strong moral compass", says Marty Dillon, Managing Director, 3Fish . The idea of leading industry change appeals to the 3Fish team; "doing things a bit differently in an industry (particularly from a supply perspective) that has been doing things in the same way for many years. 3Fish aims to be the industry benchmark for ethical sourcing. We want to create an easily recognisable brand in the market place that represents ethically sourced merchandise", says Natalie Dillon, Marketing Director, 3Fish . It is expected that other suppliers will, over time, attempt to say that "we can do that too". However, as market leader, and sole specialist in this area 3Fish aims to offer an unmatchable "authenticity guarantee" supported by an independent audit trail. Philosophically, and hopefully, over the years ethical sourcing becomes commonplace in the mass market and so by having cool, funky design fundamental to the business, 3Fish will continue to provide innovative sourcing concepts to clients.

3Fish combines extensive global promotional marketing and sourcing experience with a certification and auditing program that ensures environmental, social and economic sustainability, and traceability back to the source. When our kids ask us about global warming, environmental degradation, child labour and sweatshops let's all say that we did something to make a difference. Recognise right now that every one of our purchasing decisions has a ripple effect around the globe and choose merchandise that you can truly be proud of and feel good about at every level. It is time to make smart decisions about our promotional marketing spend and take responsibility for the end results of our demand. The inconvenient truth is no longer acceptable. Every dollar you spend has the power to invoke change. 3Fish is all about merchandise with cool design that makes a difference...let's change the world and have some fun doing it...

Envision Medical Imaging

In keeping with our commitment as members of a local community within a global society, our philosophy is “to first, do no harm”.

Medical imaging has a relatively large carbon footprint with all current forms of imaging, including ultrasound, MRI, X-ray, CT, or nuclear, requiring energy to produce the machines and then to create the medical images required to make a diagnosis.

We believe it is our responsibility to cancel any negative environmental impact involved in the production of our work.

ENVISION minimizes carbon emissions using 100% Greenpower, on a background of energy saving lighting, energy conservative fitout materials and by choosing low or no carbon businesses as our preferred suppliers.

We are proud to be fully accredited as a “no carbon” producing company – as far as we know, the first medical imaging company in Australia to have this distinction.

Mercure Meetings

Mercure Hotels offer quality 3.5-4 star accommodation to make your stay away from home as comfortable and convenient as possible.

Mercure is part of the Accor group, a European leader and major global player in travel, tourism and corporate services.

Mercure Hotels have engaged the Carbon Reduction Institute (CRI) to consult on the group’s Carbon Neutral conferencing program launched in 2008 – ‘Mercure Meetings’.  To enable Mercure Hotels to offset the emissions from their conferences, CRI provided the hotels with a conference calculator that takes into account emissions from energy usage such as heating, lighting and cooking; as well as food and stationery provided at the conferences.

Providing those calculators will give the Mercure Hotels a significant competitive edge over other, emissions intensive conference venue providers.

Mercure Meetings New Zealand

MERCURE MEETINGS – CARBON NEUTRAL OFFERING

The Carbon Reduction Institute is proud to partner with Mercure in New Zealand for the first nation-wide carbon neutral meeting offering from a major hotel chain.

The Mercure Meetings offering is specifically designed to measure and offset the greenhouse gas footprint produced by each meeting service. Each Mercure hotel then funds the cost of the offsets and will not pass them on to you.

The Carbon Reduction Institute in conjunction with Mercure calculates the emissions from the following:

                - energy used to heat, cool and ventilate the venue

- electricity consumed by lighting and AV equipment used

- emissions embodied in the food and beverage packages supplied for the event

The emissions from these services are calculated based on the running sheet of the event using published life cycle data, an input/output analysis of the New Zealand economy and emission factors provided by industry bodies, universities and the Ministry for the Environment. These emissions are then offset using carbon credits that are certified under the internationally recognised Voluntary Carbon Standard.

Currently the offsets will be funding the ‘Household Energy Efficient Lighting Project’ (HELP), implemented by Energy Mad (a New Zealand based company). With the aim to lessen climate change through economical energy savings, Energy Mad have partnered with electricity networks and retail outlets encouraging consumers to purchase the Ecobulb (Australasia’s highest performance energy saving bulb) at a heavily discounted rate. By installing Ecobulbs to replace incandescent light bulbs, the initiative leads to a direct reduction in fossil fuel electricity generation and reduces consumer’s electricity bills and wastage in our landfills.

What is not included in the emissions calculation is the travel by attendees to get to and from the event as well as any material brought in by the event organisers. The emissions from these sources are often the largest contributor to the total emission of an event, therefore the total event should not be referred to as carbon neutral unless these emissions have been calculated and offset.

* Mercure Meetings is not offered by Mercure Dunedin Leisure Lodge

Positive Impact

Our vision is a world where all products are manufactured with a “cradle to cradle” approach. This means considering the environmental impact at every stage of the product lifecycle, from manufacture to disposal, with the intention to minimise the use of natural resources at every stage.

With technology advancement in recycled and recyclable material there is no reason why we have to choose items made from cheap virgin materials that can only be used once.  Collectively this method will significantly reduce the amount of rainforests being destroyed, it can ensure people are treated kindly in their work and ultimately can educate the next generation to do better than we have.

Rubik Financial


In early 2009, Rubik commissioned the Carbon Reduction Institute to undertake a complete carbon footprint audit on the business to see what actions can be taken to reduce the impact Rubik's operations have on climate change. The audit included emissions from electricity usage, flights taken by Rubik staff; fuel usage and waste; staff work travel and staff commuting from and to work; and embodied emissions in Rubik's assets and expenses items.

Rubik now purchases carbon credits from the Karnataka Renewable Energy Project in India to offset their emissions. These carbon carbon offsets are accredited under the Voluntary Carbon Standard and have been third-party audited by DNV. The Project has been registered under the United Nations Clean Development Mechanism since 2007. To find out more about the credits Rubik purchases to offset its emissions please click here.

By undergoing regular quarterly emissions monitoring and annual re-auditing, Rubik can now claim that it is a truly carbon neutral business.
