sustainability in every action. Partnering with Signify is an exciting step that
will help us make further progress in both of these areas. Their world-leading
lighting technology already powers several night races and their pioneering
commitment to climate action is inspiring. We look forward to working together
to establish synergies in this area and their support in our ambition to become
one of the world's most sustainable sports teams. We also believe that well-
being is linked closely with performance. Signify's lighting technology and
innovation will ensure optimal conditions for our team members, and we are
excited to explore how we can optimise these opportunities further.
Richard Sanders, Chief Commercial Officer, Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team added:
"We are thrilled to welcome Signify into our partner family. We are already
privileged to collaborate with some of the most innovative companies in the
world. Adding another world-leading business to our partner ecosystem in Signify
is therefore fantastic. We are excited to collaborate with them through their
innovative technology and commitment to sustainability. Together, we are
confident that we will create a partnership with a profound impact and lasting
legacy."
Signify and Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 are committed to responsible innovation,
founded on a shared belief that performance should not come at any cost and that
sustainability does not compromise on performance. As both teams continue to
drive the transformation of their industries, responsible innovation elevates
performance and leads to sustainable outcomes.
Environmental responsibility
Signify has led the transformation and decarbonization of the lighting sector,
and recently announced its 2040 Climate Transition Plan, setting out its vision
to reach net-zero by 2040. The company has reduced GHG emissions across the full
value chain by 50% since 2019 and continues to advocate for energy efficiency
and an accelerated energy transition. With the new partnership, comes a
commitment from Signify to share knowledge and expertise to support Mercedes-AMG
PETRONAS F1 Team in developing its Climate Transition Plan.
Well-being and performance
To win in Formula One, every member of the team must perform to their full
potential at every moment. Signify's lighting innovations will augment the
team's efforts to create optimal conditions for drivers, engineers and team
members, helping them see, feel, and perform at their best. NatureConnect,
EyeComfort and other technologies will bring the power of daylight indoors to
aid concentration with light that is comfortable for the eyes and, support the
body's natural rhythm and ability to adjust to a challenging global schedule.
Unforgettable experiences
Our lighting shines on night-circuits in Singapore and Las Vegas, ensuring the
fastest show on earth is perfectly lit. And for those not at the track, Signify
delivers immersive TV and gaming surround lighting to transport fans at home to
the heart of the action.
