Menswear brand Charles Tyrwhitt has invested in green asset control technology provided by LoweConex in order to reduce energy consumption and minimise its carbon footprint.
LoweConex, which provides IoT energy management solutions, will be rolled out across the retailer’s estate to help hit its sustainability targets.
This will see the management solution implement its technology across HVAC systems in all UK Charles Tyrwhitt stores and distribution centres.
According to LoweConex, this will offer the retailer a “holistic” view of its entire asset portfolio, in-depth understanding of the running performance, and access to intelligent automation that drives energy efficiency, carbon emission reduction and sustainable maintenance.
The rollout is already underway, with all stores set to benefit from the energy management solution by the end of May 2023.
Gareth Strangwood, head of distribution and facilities at Charles Tyrwhitt, said: “We are always keen to invest in innovative technology. The data intelligence and remote control provided by LoweConex will allow us to eliminate unnecessary energy consumption, tackle wastage and better inform the right environmental initiatives for our store environments.
“We are excited to work with LoweConex as our technology partner to optimise operations, leverage automation capabilities and gain data driven insights, thus improving the environmental performance of our store portfolio.”
Orla McGreevy, divisional sales director at LoweConex, said: “The retail industry is witnessing major sustainability transformation, and they are relying on new intelligent automation and connectivity solutions to unlock the power of their data.
“It is only when retailers understand their own environmental impact through the lens of accurate and actionable data that they can implement authentic actions that will turn the tide on responsible resource consumption, carbon emissions control and waste prevention.”
She added: “We are delighted to work with Charles Tyrwhitt to provide remote monitoring and control through our IoT software platform and reliable connectivity via LoweConex hardware, which will enable Charles Tyrwhitt to take control of their HVAC assets and realise sustainable savings.”
