Arcelik Hitachi Home Appliances, the manufacturer, distributor, and after sales services provider of Hitachi branded home appliances globally (excluding those of Japan) is on a mission to reduce the carbon emissions from its digital advertising campaigns by at least 25% over a six month period. The optimization test case will run from May to December 2024 in 4 markets: Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Singapore,
Arcelik Hitachi has partnered with Scope3, the collaborative sustainability platform leading the decarbonization of media and advertising, to help drive the target reduction and inform lasting changes to Arcelik Hitachi's digital media strategy.
Working with Arcelik Hitachi's agency H+, Scope3 will help reduce emissions in their digital campaigns by removing climate risk inventory (inventory with high carbon emissions) using Green Media Products (GMP+), which also block MFA and problematic ad placements by design.The optimization will take place half way through a six-month campaign period to provide a definitive side-by-side comparison of reductions and performance data.
According to Melis Erdinc, Global Head of Digital Marketing at Arcelik Hitachi Home Appliances, engaging Scope3 to reduce the carbon footprint of its digital advertising activities is the next step in the company's sustainability journey.
"With our parent company, Arcelik being recognized by Corporate Knights in its '2023 Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World' list ,Arcelik Hitachi places sustainability at the core of our business and is always looking at new and innovative ways to help us get to Net Zero by 2050. Last year, when Scope3 expanded its activities in Southeast Asia, we eagerly seized the opportunity to collaborate. Together with Scope3 we are pioneering a greener approach to digital advertising. We're thrilled to commit a 25% reduction in the carbon footprint of our digital marketing activity by the end of 2024. I'm proud to say that this partnership reflects our commitment to sustainability and innovation." said Melis Erdinc, Head of Digital Marketing at Arcelik Hitachi Home Appliances.
