https://www.sensormatic.com/?utm_campaign=FY22-Sensormatic-Sustainability&utm_medium=BusinessWire&utm_source=FY22Q204_Sustainability-Press-Release-Sensormatic-Home

), the leading global retail solutions portfolio of Johnson Controls(

https://www.johnsoncontrols.com/ ), today released its 2021 Sustainability

Story white paper, detailing its sustainability efforts. Sensormatic Solutions

is built on innovation, and is dedicated toward sustainable products,

solutions, and services. The company also extends its sustainability focus to

include its people and processes.

 

"We are committed to developing innovations that positively impact

sustainability outcomes for a brighter future in all aspects of our business,

from our products, to our processes, to our people," said Bjoern Petersen,

Global Managing Director and Chief Strategy & Growth Officer, Sensormatic

Solutions. "As a leader in retail technology and part of Johnson Controls — a

strong voice in sustainability policy around the world — we hold ourselves to

high environmental and social standards while helping our suppliers, partners,

and retail customers do the same. Responsible Retail is the north star for

everything we do."

 

For Retailers: Positioning Technology at the Core of Sustainability Initiatives

 

Sensormatic Solutions built its portfolio on a foundation of sustainability.

The organization's focus on prioritizing responsible retail practices while

leveraging innovative technology and meeting retailers' evolving needs is

apparent in all facets of its business.

 

The following represent just a few examples of how Sensormatic Solutions leads

the charge toward a more sustainable retail future through its solutions for

inventory intelligence, shopper experience, loss prevention, and operational

effectiveness:

 

- Sensormatic Solutions' latest generation of Electronic Article Surveillance

(EAS) systems consume 50% less power than earlier models and feature a "power

save" mode that can result in 30% less energy use per 12-hour store day.

 

- Sensormatic Solutions Inventory Intelligence solution leverages radio

frequency identification (RFID) to deliver accurate, real-time insights that

can help reduce waste, carbon emissions, and energy use throughout the entire

supply chain.

 

- Shopper insights provide retailers with a comprehensive understanding of

their shoppers' behaviors to help make smarter decisions about stores and

properties, including when to adjust hours for maximum occupancy to save energy

and water, as well as reduce CO2 from wasted trips to stores that are not

properly staffed or where inventory is unavailable.

 

- Over the past year, Sensormatic Solutions Visual Source Tags Recirculation

(VSTR) initiative resulted in 1.5B tags recirculated, with 11.4 billion tags

recirculated since the program's inception in 2010.

 

For Shoppers: Powering Sustainable, Seamless Shopping Experiences

 

Sensormatic Solutions understands the importance of sustainability and

convenience for consumers —and Sensormatic IQ helps retailers leverage

actionable insights to meet both demands. After all, the shopper experience

hinges on perfectly timed moments of truth or 'precision retail' — engagement

on the customer's terms, providing the right item at the right place at the

right time. Moments between customers, stores, associates, and merchandise

opportunities for retailers can positively impact the brand experience and

execute seamless unified commerce, all with sustainability in mind. For example:

 

- Item-level inventory ensures a shopper's trip is purposeful, knowing that

their item will be in stock or ready for pick up, helping to avoid making

wasted trips.

 

- Data integration from shopper insights can help visualize both staff service

level and shopper time dedicated to transactions, determining efficient shopper

journeys, and reducing wasted trips to stores where staffing levels are not

aligned to demand of services.

 

For Sensormatic: Committed to Sustainability from the Inside-Out

 

Sensormatic Solutions continuously reviews its own operations, facilities, and

fleets to improve environmental performance and energy management by

identifying and reducing every excess. Its facilities also prioritize reducing

water and power consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and waste sent to

landfills through a variety of initiatives.

 

Sensormatic Solutions leverages the capabilities of Johnson Controls

OpenBlue(https://www.johnsoncontrols.com/openblue) technologies and

innovations, which utilize data and AI to optimize sustainable buildings.

Johnson Controls is making significant steps to improve its environmental

impact and has committed to achieving net zero Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions

by 2040 – ten years ahead of the goal set out in the United Nations Paris

Climate Agreement. The company aims to cut its operational emissions by 55

percent and reduce customers' emissions by 16 percent before 2030. These

ambitious 2030 emissions reduction targets have been approved by the Science

Based Targets initiative. Johnson Controls also recently issued a

Sustainability-Linked Bond to support its commitment to achieving ambitious

absolute emission reductions by 2025.
