Roomex, an all-in-one accommodation and expenses platform built for businesses with a mobile workforce, is proud to unveil its groundbreaking Carbon Reporting feature, developed in partnership with SQUAKE. This innovative new product empowers businesses to accurately measure and report the carbon impact of their travel and accommodation bookings.
Driven by popular demand, the firm’s new Carbon Reporting feature leverages SQUAKE’s advanced API to provide comprehensive carbon emission details for each booking based off either the HCMI (Hotel Carbon Measurement Initiative) or the UK government’s DEFRA frameworks for measuring emissions and sustainability. Customers have an option between the two.
Garry Moroney, CEO of Roomex, commented on the launch: “As global awareness of environmental sustainability grows, businesses are increasingly seeking ways to reduce their carbon footprint. According to 2023 YouGov market research conducted by Roomex, 12% of businesses identify sustainable reporting as one of the top three challenges that their business faces when booking corporate travel – ahead of issues such as price.
Our partnership with SQUAKE enhances our commitment to sustainability by empowering our customers to make informed decisions, identify high-risk areas, and implement strategies to reduce their environmental impact. This is a significant stride towards sustainable travel practices.”
Natalie Estment, Head of Partnerships at SQUAKE, said: “We’re delighted to partner with Roomex to help drive sustainable travel practices. By combining our advanced carbon tracking technology with Roomex’s comprehensive platform, we can provide businesses with the resources they need to understand and reduce their carbon footprint. This collaboration amplifies our mutual commitment to environmental responsibility and innovation in the business travel sector.”
