On International Ozone Day, Hozah highlights how smarter, barrier-free parking can reduce emissions, cut waste, and support businesses and communities to move towards a cleaner environment — helping to create a more sustainable future.

On the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer (Ozone Day), we’re reminded that small changes in how we live and move can add up to big wins for the planet. At Hozah, we believe smarter parking can be part of that change. By removing the hidden inefficiencies of traditional car parks, our Autopay ecosystem helps to cut emissions, conserve energy, and reduce waste — all of which support cleaner air and a healthier environment.
Less idling, cleaner air
Every minute spent in a barrier queue means an engine running, fuel burning, and exhaust fumes rising. With Hozah’s barrier-free ANPR system, cars no longer sit idling at entry and exit points. The result is reduced CO₂ and NOx emissions, contributing to cleaner air and helping limit the pollutants that damage both health and the ozone layer.
Cutting waste, conserving resources
Parking shouldn’t come with a pile of tickets, receipts, or plastic tokens. By going ticketless, Hozah eliminates unnecessary single-use materials, preventing waste from heading to landfills and lowering the environmental cost of production and disposal.
Lower energy use, smaller footprint
Barriers, ticket machines, and payment kiosks consume power continuously. Removing them reduces energy demand, helping operators shrink their carbon footprint while moving closer to sustainability and ESG goals.
Smarter traffic flow, safer spaces
By keeping vehicles moving smoothly in and out of car parks, Hozah reduces stop-start driving that wastes fuel and releases pollutants. It also makes for calmer, safer environments for pedestrians.
Supporting global sustainability efforts
Protecting the ozone layer and reducing emissions go hand in hand. For site owners and operators, Hozah offers tangible contributions to sustainability targets:
- Drivers: Less idling and smoother journeys mean reduced fuel use, lower emissions, and a smaller personal carbon footprint.
- Businesses: More efficient operations cut energy bills, reduce hardware costs, and demonstrate clear progress toward ESG commitments.
- Communities: Cleaner air, less congestion, and reduced waste support healthier, more liveable urban environments.
- Planet: Lower CO₂ and NOx emissions, fewer single-use materials, and reduced energy demand all contribute to sustainability and ozone protection.
Drivers using Hozah save time while also reducing their personal footprint. For operators, the system delivers efficiency, sustainability, and a stronger customer experience — all while supporting global goals to protect the air we all share.
