Sustainability Strategy

Our Immediate Commitment to Sustainability

As part of our sustainability strategy, we aim to actively contribute to combating climate change and avoiding or at least reducing potential negative impacts on the environment. Our goal is to make our business more sustainable and to better leverage the opportunities of sustainable business development.

More Efficient Route Planning

To ensure sustainable logistics, reducing fuel consumption is essential. Since fossil fuels are the main source of environmentally harmful emissions, their reduction is of great importance. Better fuel efficiency can make freight transport not only more environmentally friendly but also more economical. With optimized route planning, transport companies can shorten travel distances and thus significantly reduce fuel consumption. Additionally, the use of GPS and telematics systems contributes to increased efficiency and cost reduction.

Improving Load Efficiency

Efficient use of cargo space can significantly reduce the need for additional transports. Empty runs are not only very costly but also a significant burden from a sustainability perspective. By targeted loading or organizing return trips with cargo after completing an order, the fleet can be operated much more sustainably.

Importance of Cooperation with Partners and Customers

Close cooperation between partners and customers plays a crucial role in developing sustainable transport solutions. Sustainability is an essential part of our society and should be achieved through joint efforts rather than individual measures. Together, we can develop concepts such as smaller and medium-sized warehouses or the consolidation of orders to better utilize transport means.

 

Long-term Optimizations to Increase Sustainability

Environmentally Friendly Vehicles

The use of environmentally friendly vehicles such as electric or hybrid vehicles is crucial for reducing CO2 emissions. At the same time, modern combustion and diesel engines play a significant role in combating climate change.

Use of Alternative Energy Sources

Integrating renewable energies into logistics centers, warehouses, and office and business premises can significantly reduce a company’s ecological footprint. Solar energy, wind power, and other renewable energy sources offer efficient solutions for this.

Training and Awareness

Another focus is on training and raising employees’ awareness of sustainability. This promotes a responsible use of resources and supports the development of a sustainable corporate culture.
