At Haystack, we are committed to sustainability. For every paid user, we plant a tree in our dedicated forest in Tanzania, contributing to a greener planet.
Hit your ESG Targets
Through our partnership with Forest Nation, our forest has a number of additional objectives beyond the reforestation itself:
Tree Species
Agroforestry techniques are used to plant a mix of Indigenous tree species for land recovery, Fruit trees for community income, and Woodlot products used as timber off-take.
Jobs Created
80% of the staff employed in the nursery are women!
Income Created
Fruit, Moringa, Coffee seedlings are provided to families to plant on their farms. Once they mature, they produce a regular harvest, yielding food and income through selling of fruit, medicine, oil etc. These farmers now earn $173 for every 100 trees planted.
Community Impact
Through green schools program, Planting trees along riverbanks( to ensure fresh water supply), providing additional timber for the local wood industry, and enhancing natural resources.
Why Haystack’s Digital Cards Lead in Sustainability
Savings from paper
Saving the equivalent of 85,000 sheets of paper, 8,000 gallons of water, and 5,000 KWh of electricity for every 1,000 employees each year.
No plastics
Your digital card does not need a ‘plastic band/card/token. Whatever a $3.5 plastic card can do, your employees’ $1,000 phones can do better.
Carbon footprint
Haystack uses GCP’s Belgium based cloud servers –this is one of the world’s greenest cloud computing sites. The carbon footprint of 1,000 Haystack digital cards is the equivalent of one car driving 1.5 miles per year.
Tree planting
Being positive does not just mean ‘reduce’. It also means ‘offset’. We plant one tree for each of your employees with a paid Haystack digital business card, so your business cards are overall a planet positive initiative for your company.
Powering Your Cards Sustainably With Google Cloud
