Green Hosting

Green Hosting

PLANT has always been different. Not only were we one of the very first webhosting companies to open for business, we have always considered our social responsibility an important part of our existence. The company has never put profit first at the expense of quality. PLANT is still managed by its founders since 1995 whereas most entrepreneurs from the .com era have sold their business.

Corporate Social Responsibility is defined as the continuing commitment by business to act ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce, the local community and society at large. CSR was chosen by PLANT to put before profits and growth as we believe that in the long run this will bring us both and more. The first step in this of course is environmentally friendly hosting.

With this in mind it is not difficult to imagine that when we build a datacenter we would use only the best materials and products to end up with the most environmentally friendly datacenter possible. We're not just another hosting company that uses green energy. Our entire technological setup is the latest and finest when it comes to saving energy. Green hosting starts with servers that use less power than standard servers do. The next step is to use virtualization where possible and use cooling sparingly and efficiently. Our Stultz datacenter cooling equipment is considered among the best and most efficient in the world. Last but not least we have a cold corridor setup which uses cooling in the most efficient manner. Being a webhosting company that owns their datacenter we get to influence all aspects of hosting that help in saving energy.

When you host your site or server with us we invite you to add our green hosting logo to your website.
