Operating sustainably.

Reducing carbon emissions starts with transparency. By measuring our emissions and making the data accessible, we can better understand the environmental impact of our decisions. Samsara’s long-term goal is to reach net zero across our Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 2040, in line with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

Investing in climate innovation.

Since we began measuring our carbon footprint in 2019, we’ve made incremental improvements to our calculation methodologies to capture as much detail as possible from our global operations.

Rather than achieving carbon neutrality annually primarily by purchasing offsets, we are making further changes in our operations to reduce our carbon footprint and investing in climate innovation and renewable energy. Through our subscriptions to clean power programs offered by utilities and purchasing Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) globally, we were able to source enough renewable energy to power our corporate offices and employee offices worldwide.

Building a sustainable hardware supply chain.

We continue to gather sustainability data from our top suppliers to ensure that we are building a resilient and sustainable supply chain. Our top 3 partners have all made SBTi commitments and are currently disclosing to the CDP. Our top 10 suppliers are all International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14001 certified.

Over the last year, we’ve made improvements to help us build products more sustainably, including: 

Recycle

Using recycled materials in our products

We successfully tested and qualified 50% post-consumer resin (PCR) for some of our parts in our Vehicle Gateway to reduce our reliance on plastic. We plan on expanding our access and use of recycled materials in future hardware programs.

Decreasing single use plastics

Decreasing use of single-use plastics

On our Vehicle Gateway product, we removed our single-use plastic bag in the packaging and reduced our reliance on plastic.

Manufacturing with renewable energy

Manufacturing with renewable energy

We made commitments to partner with manufacturing facilities that are powered by partial renewable energy. We plan to continue to find ways to expand renewable energy use across manufacturing facilities we work with.

Move to zero waste in manufacturing

Move to zero waste in manufacturing

We engaged a new manufacturing facility partner that received a zero-waste certification. We will continue to qualify other factories and products to be manufactured at zero-waste facilities.

Carbon accounting

Carbon accounting

We are beginning to refine our carbon accounting practices and are developing full life cycle assessments of our hardware products and packaging. This will allow us to further understand which part of the supply chain is generating the most carbon.

Shift to ocean freight

Shift to ocean freight

To reduce our carbon footprint, we continue to shift away from air shipments as a primary form of transportation for our devices, focusing on sea transport. In our last fiscal year, we improved our annual average sea shipment rate by 41%. By the last quarter of our last fiscal year, we increased our ocean shipment volume with a sea shipment rate of 78% of total units shipped.
