Signify Philippines embodies Bright Lives, Better World with tree planting activity in Rizal along the Sierra Madre foothills. Trees have always been a quiet blessing in our daily lives. They give shade, cleaner air, and a sense of safety—values every Filipino family, especially moms, deeply understands. As forest cover in the Philippines drops to a concerning 23 percent, efforts to restore our natural environment become more important than ever.
Brighter Lives, Better World: Signify Philippines Takes Action for Sustainability
Signify, a global leader in lighting, continues to strengthen its environmental advocacy through its "Brighter Lives, Better World 2025" program. Inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the company aims to make a bigger positive impact by supporting a circular economy, developing eco-friendly products, and lowering its carbon footprint across all operations.
Local Action for a Greener Tomorrow
In the Philippines, Signify transformed its commitment into a hands-on initiative. Employees stepped out of the office and into nature to join a tree-planting activity held in Sitio Maysawa, Barangay Cuyambay, Tanay, Rizal, on October 25, 2025. Located in the Sierra Madre range—a vital natural shield against storms and disasters—the area needs ongoing conservation to protect future generations.
During the activity, a total of 500 fruit-bearing seedlings were planted by the Signify Philippines team together with Green Media Events Company and partner volunteers. This simple yet meaningful act reflects a shared responsibility to rebuild our forests and nurture a healthier environment.
Nurturing Sustainability Through Community Involvement
Beyond its innovations in lighting, Signify believes that real, lasting change starts with people. The tree-planting activity allowed employees to experience sustainability beyond the office, connecting with nature and reinforcing the company’s values of care, responsibility, and environmental stewardship. It also serves as a reminder to Filipino families—especially moms who teach everyday lessons at home—that caring for nature is a legacy we can pass on to our children.
Looking ahead, Signify Philippines remains committed to projects that uplift both the environment and local communities. The seedlings planted today will one day grow into trees that protect, nourish, and inspire hope for a brighter, greener tomorrow.
