Sustainability Strategy 

Vision Systems is a New Zealand owned and operated company specialising in electronic security, electrical installation, and data cabling, from planning to installation to ongoing servicing and maintenance throughout New Zealand. We are raising the industry standard, delivering exceptional customer service and have an energetic, engaged and experienced team living our business why of “Simply Making Lives Better”.

One of our company values is to be ‘1% better each day’. This has driven us to look into how we can promote sustainable development and play our part in moving from a traditional linear system to one that is circular, regenerative and inclusive. As part of this, we have engaged Go Well Consulting to develop this sustainability strategy, which sets out our goals for the next three years and breaks those goals down into corresponding targets across the years.
