Energy efficiency & Emissions
As a technology-driven organization, Adaptive Recognition operates in a sector with low energy intensity, resulting in minimal on-site emissions. We carefully manage our energy sources, including district heating, electricity, and gas, to ensure the most efficient use and mitigate environmental impacts
Water Sterwardship
At Adaptive Recognition, water plays a crucial role as a coolant, process medium, and for sanitary purposes. While our production processes do not require large quantities of water, we prioritize water management across all our locations, actively reducing water consumption to the lowest feasible levels.
Waste Minimization & Recycling
We strive to minimize waste generation throughout our production processes. We employ rigorous waste separation techniques and provide comprehensive training to our employees to prevent waste at its source. When recycling is not feasible, we ensure proper disposal through certified specialist waste disposal companies.
Product Excellence & Responsibility
Product responsibility encompasses our unwavering dedication to delivering high-quality solutions that prioritize safety for both users and the environment. Throughout the entire product lifecycle, we place great emphasis on responsible resource utilization, focusing on three key areas: material efficiency, energy conservation, and pollution prevention.

CIRCULARITY
At Adaptive Recognition, we are proud to be actively engaged in the concept of circularity. As part of our commitment to sustainable practices, we have established a program where we encourage our customers, who have previously purchased cameras from us, to return their old cameras when they purchase new ones.
Once these cameras are returned, our dedicated team carefully dismantles them, identifying and extracting reusable components. These components are then repurposed and integrated into the production of new cameras, allowing us to minimize waste and maximize resource efficiency. By embracing circularity, we aim to contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally conscious approach to manufacturing and product lifecycle management.
GREEN FLEET
At Adaptive Recognition, we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint and embracing sustainable transportation practices. As part of this commitment, we have successfully transitioned our corporate car fleet from traditional gas engines to hybrid vehicles. By incorporating hybrid technology into our fleet, we have significantly reduced our reliance on fossil fuels and minimized emissions, contributing to cleaner air and a healthier environment.
This transition aligns with our vision of sustainability and showcases our dedication to adopting innovative solutions that prioritize both efficiency and environmental responsibility.
