Sustainability
Taking sustainability into our own hands
Every business's operations, energy consumption, and resource use play a role in global climate change. As our team continues to grow, so does our environmental impact—and our responsibility. But at Bloc Digital, we believe actions speak louder than words.
We are active in carbon offsetting through a not-for-profit initiative named Co-Treatment, planting 500+ trees each year.
Almost 100% of our trees have been directly planted by members of our team.
Our trees are planted locally, counteracting that environmental footprint as close to the source as possible.
We have purchased all-electric cars to reduce our business mileage impacts.
We recycle, as standard.
Carbon Neutral
in our electricity use since 2019
Our commitment to a greener world goes beyond our own efforts—we're also helping our clients reduce their environmental impact. By streamlining operations and cutting down on waste, we're working together to make a difference.
Whether it's through enhancing efficiency with digital twin solutions, visualising sustainability concepts or offering immersive experiences and eLearning to reduce the need for travel, we're focused on practical solutions that benefit both business and the planet.

Inspiring the next generation
Our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) outreach programme has been inspiring curiosity in young people for more than a decade. We lead in-school taster sessions, work experience placements and partner with not-for-profits like TeenTech to break down the barriers to immersive technology.
Proactive partnerships with local educational institutions also help us to promote Derby as a place for opportunity. We support apprenticeships, T-levels, graduates and beyond – ensuring new talent is trained and retained within our region.

Charity and Community
Using our skills for good
We support charities and good causes that mirror our values... not just to write cheques, but to effect change. Whether it's donating our specialist skills to spread the word or empowering the fundraising efforts of our team, we're driven by an authentic need to help the people around us and the communities we call home.
