We partner with industry-leading data centers to ensure our services are as energy efficient as possible, helping us contribute to a sustainable environment and reduce the environmental impact of our operations.
Deploy Occupancy Sensors to Reduce Energy Usage
At our office, advanced sensors detect when people enter and leave the room automatically adjusting the lighting, temperature, and other energy systems accordingly.
By doing this, we ensure energy is only used when necessary, resulting in lower energy bills and a reduced environmental impact.
Consolidation of Multiple Department Spaces
To reduce our carbon footprint, we have relocated our warehouse and infrastructure (IT) space to our Miami headquarters and encouraged remote positions for employees to minimize our overall energy consumption and transportation-related emissions.
Replacement of Company's Thermostats to Provide Efficient HVAC Scheduling
New, energy-efficient thermostats have been integrated in our headquarters, allowing us to schedule heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) units to run only when needed, maintaining optimal temperature levels while still ensuring our employees work in a comfortable environment.
LEED Gold Certified Office Relocation
In December 2023, Intermex will relocate to the Datran Center building office, which has been gold certified in the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) scale.
This move is part of our commitment to minimize our carbon footprint and adhere to eco-friendly measures, as our new office will be equipped with the latest technologies to provide us with necessary resources to offer the highest quality professional environment for our employees while maintaining our commitment to sustainability.

Reducing Waste by Going Paperless
Our office is striving to become a paperless office, we are aiming for 90% of our files to be digital, replacing paper documents with electronic ones by December 2023.
We believe going paperless is an important step towards a more sustainable future, and this measure will help us save resources, reduce clutter, and improve efficiency.
We are currently exploring new technologies and document management systems to make the transition easier.
