August 2024 has been a standout month for E Ink, as the company proudly received two prestigious awards celebrating its dedication to sustainability and innovation.
SEMI FlexTech 2024 FLEXI Award for Environmental Sustainability
Lynne Garone, Associate Vice President at E Ink, was honored with the Environmental Sustainability Award at the 2024 FLEXI Awards. Recognized for her advocacy and efforts in promoting sustainability within the flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) industry, Garone has been instrumental in shaping E Ink’s sustainability practices. Her leadership has driven employee initiatives and secured corporate commitments to the United Nations Global Compact and a carbon net-zero goal by 2040. Additionally, her active participation in a Massachusetts-based Green Team initiative highlights her dedication to environmental stewardship.
“E Ink believes innovation and sustainability go hand in hand,” said Garone. “Our passion in this area inspired our corporate mission to be carbon net zero by 2040, and we are confident that the meaningful actions we are taking across our business will enable us to achieve that goal.”
Business Intelligence Group’s 2024 Sustainability Award for Product
Just days later, E Ink was again in the spotlight, winning the 2024 Sustainability Award from the Business Intelligence Group. This award recognizes organizations and products that have made sustainability a core element.
Russ Fordyce, CEO of Business Intelligence Group, emphasized the importance of sustainability in modern business, stating, “Sustainability has evolved from a passing trend to a cornerstone of most forward-thinking companies. We are honored to recognize and celebrate all of our winners and finalists who are making a significant difference in protecting our environment.”
E Ink has shipped nearly a billion ePaper displays for eReaders, eNotes, Electronic Shelf Labels (ESLs), transportation and public information signs, watches, glucose meters, and more. Our low power displays enable customers to reach their sustainability goals, and we’ve pledged to use 100% renewable energy by 2030 and reach net zero carbon emissions by 2040.
The company’s recent accolades underscore our unwavering commitment to sustainability and innovation. By focusing on sustainable practices and setting ambitious goals for the future, E Ink is not only leading the way in the technology industry but also setting a powerful example for businesses worldwide. Our achievements serve as a testament to the impact that dedicated leadership and a clear vision can have on creating a more sustainable and environmentally conscious world.
