Green working spaces

We are committed to reducing greenhouse gases and enhancing our employees' quality of life through sustainable workspaces and IT infrastructure.

Work from home

Calix’s remote-first culture shrinks our office footprint and slashes commuting emissions—advancing enterprise sustainability while empowering employees to work smarter and greener.

IT with less GHG

Data centers are designed efficiently, including moving more systems off-premises and to the cloud, allows for less energy consumption and removal of less efficient legacy systems.

Eco-forward offices

Calix champions flexible work and sustainable design—combining LEED-certified offices with low-impact setups that reduce emissions and elevate employee well-being.

Built for the future

Our new LEED certified HQ

Designed with eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient systems, our new LEED Gold certified headquarters in Silicon Valley sets a benchmark for sustainable innovation.

Reducing greenhouse gases

At Calix, we are dedicated to supporting our customers, caring for our employees, and maximizing shareholder value. We believe that maintaining a green business is essential to achieving these goals. As we grow, we adhere to principles that ensure our operations are as green as possible.

Our commitment to remote work in North America significantly reduces transportation emissions and lowers power consumption due to decreased office space. Our green office design includes LED lighting with automatic sensors, high-efficiency HVAC systems and appliances, and the use of compostable and reusable dishes and silverware. We also select high-efficiency buildings and purchase renewable energy whenever available.

Calix is committed to continually improving these metrics as we grow, and we look forward to showcasing our progress through the sustainable design of our business activities.
