Vinyl: A Sustainable Choice
Long-Lasting Physical Media
Unlike digital storage that requires constant energy and server infrastructure, vinyl records are a one-time production that lasts for generations. A well-maintained vinyl record can play perfectly for 100+ years without consuming any additional energy or resources.
No Digital Infrastructure
Digital music streaming requires massive data centers that consume enormous amounts of electricity 24/7. Vinyl records need no servers, no cloud storage, and no continuous power consumption—just a turntable when you want to listen.
Our Sustainability Goals
2025: 100% Renewable Energy
Transition all production facilities to 100% renewable energy sources including solar and wind power.
2026: Bio-Based Vinyl Testing
Begin testing and implementing plant-based vinyl alternatives that maintain audio quality while reducing petroleum dependency.
2027: Zero Waste Production
Achieve zero-waste production by recycling 100% of production scraps and implementing closed-loop manufacturing processes.
