At Straion, we are committed to playing our part in the global efforts to combat climate change and promote equality. We believe in the power of sustainable practices and are cultivating a culture of environmental responsibility. Together, we can create a more sustainable world.
Straion supports remote collaboration, significantly reducing the need for travel and helping cut transportation-related CO2 emissions. Studies have shown that remote work can substantially lower carbon footprints, particularly in the context of reduced commuting and travel for global teams [1, 2]. By enabling a distributed workforce, we help minimize the environmental impact of transportation, making a positive contribution to climate action.
We streamline development processes by improving decision clarity and minimizing delays or errors. Shorter project timelines mean lower energy consumption throughout the software development lifecycle, reducing the overall environmental impact. By continuously refining our workflows, we contribute to SDG 12 β Responsible Consumption and Production, particularly target 12.2, which aims to achieve sustainable management and efficient use of resources.
Straion's infrastructure is hosted on energy-efficient cloud platforms powered by 100% renewable hydropower. Our data centers are optimized for energy consumption, reducing CO2 emissions significantly. In line with SDG 7 und its target 7.2 β By 2030, increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix, which calls for a substantial increase in renewable energy use, we are proud to leverage infrastructure that supports a sustainable future.

Straion champions inclusivity and equal opportunity. We ensure that all users have a voice in the software decision-making process, supporting SDG 5 β Gender Equality and the target 5.1 β End all forms of discrimination against all women and girls everywhere. We believe in empowering women by promoting their full and effective participation in leadership at every level, from strategic development to project management. Our sustainability efforts reflect our belief in balancing innovation with environmental and social responsibility, working towards a better future for everyone.
