In its FY26 Impact Highlights Report, Logitech reported:

🌱 33% reduction in Scope 3 emissions
♻️ 81% of Logitech products manufactured with post-consumer recycled plastics
🔧 69 product lines supported with spare parts and repair guides
📦 2,500 tonnes of packaging material removed over three years

Logitech's Design for Sustainability approach considers how products are designed, manufactured, used, repaired and ultimately managed at end of life.

For customers, that means sustainability can become part of a broader technology decision -alongside performance, reliability, usability and lifecycle value.

For partners, it creates another important conversation when helping customers specify collaboration technology: not just “Does it work?” but “How responsibly is it designed and supported throughout its lifecycle?”

We're proud to have Logitech as part of the Kathea portfolio and to give our partners access to collaboration solutions from a manufacturer that is putting measurable sustainability goals into practice.

But one customer requirement can often lead to a much broader conversation.

A new meeting room could mean:

- Video collaboration
- Professional audio
- Collaboration displays
- Room scheduling
- Connectivity and control
- Personal collaboration solutions

South African technology leaders are increasingly dealing with connected priorities—from collaboration and cloud to resilience, security and business continuity - rather than managing each technology requirement in isolation.

For partners, that means the opportunity is increasingly about solution ecosystems, not individual products.

At Kathea Communications, our multi-vendor portfolio helps partners build solutions around customer requirements across brands including HP Poly, Logitech, Yealink, Lenovo, Yamaha and ATEN.

This Heritage Day, we celebrate the cultures, traditions, languages, stories and experiences that make South Africa so wonderfully diverse.

Our heritage is more than where we come from - it’s what connects us, shapes us and helps us build a future together.

Here’s to celebrating what makes us different, and what brings us together.

Here are five questions every partner can ask:

1️⃣ Where will people use it?
Office, meeting room, home or multiple locations?

2️⃣ How many people are involved?
Room size and user numbers matter.

3️⃣ Which platforms do they use?
Technology should support existing workflows.

4️⃣ What isn't working today?
The pain point is often more important than the initial product request.

5️⃣ What happens next?
Consider future scalability before recommending today's solution.

For channel partners, the strongest solution conversations often begin with the right questions - not the product catalogue.

At Kathea Communications, we support partners with a broad range of communication, collaboration and AV solutions to help match technology to customer requirements.

Recent South African labour-market data suggests that flexible work is continuing to expand beyond traditional technology roles, with remote opportunities increasing during the first half of 2026 across sectors including finance, sales, management and administration.

For Kathea partners, that creates an important opportunity.

As more organisations support distributed teams, the conversation is moving beyond laptops and connectivity to the technology that keeps people connected and productive:

✔ Better audio
✔ More effective video
✔ Professional headsets
✔ Smarter meeting spaces
✔ Collaboration technology that delivers a consistent experience

Hybrid work is no longer a niche requirement. It is becoming part of how organisations attract talent, collaborate and operate.

For partners, this means more opportunities to help customers rethink how their people connect - whether they're in the office, at home or working across locations.

At Kathea Communications, we support these conversations with a broad collaboration portfolio designed to help our partners address evolving workplace requirements.

Are you seeing more demand for hybrid workplace solutions than you did a year ago? Share and comment below.
