Our vision is code that matters

Code should have meaning. For us, that means smart work for our team, sustainable solutions for our clients, and technology that doesn’t place unnecessary strain on the planet. We write code that matters – today and tomorrow.

Sustainability work

Sustainability work at Hurja began in 2022 through the Purpose2030™ project, in which sustainability was integrated into the company’s strategy and everyday operations. This work is guided by a sustainability programme that covers environmental responsibility, social responsibility and economic responsibility.

Sustainability work is carried out in a systematic manner, and its progress is monitored regularly. The responsible use of technology is also guided by our own ethical principles for the use of AI. The implementation of the sustainability programme and its key measures are described in the sustainability report published annually.

We’re a carbon neutral software company

In 2024, Hurja was granted the Carbon Neutral label by Code from Finland ry, officially recognizing us as a carbon neutral software company. But that’s just one step, We’re committed to doing more for the environment, now and in the future.

To keep the label, we must measure our carbon footprint, take action to reduce it, and compensate the rest every single year. No room for complacency.

Measures to reduce emissions

We actively strive to reduce our carbon footprint through concrete actions:

Responsible procurement: We aim to select responsible suppliers and prioritize Finnish suppliers whenever possible. We are exploring ways to reduce the carbon footprint of purchased services and minimizing purchases of promotional gifts manufactured abroad.
Sustainable commuting and business travel: We reduce emissions by allowing unlimited remote work, minimizing unnecessary business travel, and offering employees a company bicycle benefit.
Use of renewable energy: We prioritize renewable energy in our office and server hosting. For example, Hetzner’s virtual servers located in a Finnish data center run entirely on renewable energy.
Energy-efficient premises and recycling: We pay attention to the energy consumption of our equipment, have switched to LED lighting in our office, and improved waste sorting and recycling. We have also decided to move to smaller premises to improve energy efficiency.
Circular economy practices for equipment and resources: We lease computers for our employees, ensuring that the devices are returned to suppliers at the end of their life cycle. We also apply circular economy principles when purchasing office furniture. Our goal is to recycle or donate equipment that is no longer in use but still functional, such as monitors.
Increasing plant-based food options: We favor plant-based meals at company events and use oat milk for coffee.

Partnership for a more sustainable world

Our long-term goal is to increase our overall positive impact on the world. We aim to support environmentally beneficial projects directly or indirectly through the services we provide.

We’re ready to partner on projects that promote climate-positive goals. It’s part of our sustainability program, and to support this mission, we’re also willing to offer services for such projects at reduced rates to enable greater impact.
