We are delighted to announce that TechRadar has named EcoSend a ‘Sustainability Hero of 2024’ in its inaugural sustainability awards. 

News of our win was recently published on the TechRadar website, where EcoSend was also commended alongside Acer and Bang & Olufsen.

Given we founded EcoSend to offer the email space something different, we couldn’t be more appreciative of this recognition. So, we’d like to extend our thanks to TechRadar, as well as all of our customers who have joined us on our mission so far to make email marketing sustainable. 

“EcoSend’s Mission To Make Email More Sustainable Is One I Applaud” - Marc McLaren, TechRadar's Global Editor In Chief

For those of you who are new here, we’d like to help you understand why we decided to create EcoSend. 

During the summer of 2022 here in the UK, we experienced record heat waves with temperatures exceeding 40°C (104°F). Following many years of flash floods and other extreme weather events, it prompted our Co-Founders James and JT to think about what we could do to help our customers reduce their carbon emissions. 

That's because when it comes to solving climate change, we all have to play our part. With the internet believed to account for 4% of all global emissions and over 300 billion emails being sent per day, a change was needed.

EcoSend was the product of those team discussions, and offers marketers an email platform which is powered by renewable energy to reduce the carbon emissions of emails.

Marc McLaren from TechRadar added: “It might seem like a small thing, but every extra emission adds up, and EcoSend’s mission to make email more sustainable is one I applaud.”

With TechRadar now recognising our efforts, we really couldn’t be more pleased as a whole team. After all, it’s not easy to differentiate yourself as an email provider by tackling an issue that still isn’t well known about. So this award definitely feels very special! 

A Word From Our Founder

EcoSend Founder James Gill added: “We are thrilled and honoured to be featured as winners of the TechRadar Sustainability Awards 2024.

While we see our journey as just getting started, it means the world to receive this award alongside other well established household names in the technology space.

We thank the panel and experts for taking the time to understand our mission and for supporting our work towards a more sustainable, thoughtful future for email marketing.”
