Sustainable mobility and storage

There is ever-increasing pressure on logistics: everything has to be faster yet more sustainable. While it is certainly not an easy task, there are many innovative projects that logistics companies can implement without immediately changing the entire business plan. By working on the sustainable logistics of the future one step at a time, we can already make a difference today.

Pressure increases to minimise the impact of transport

Demand for sustainable partners

At the behest of consumers, retailers and companies are under growing pressure to minimise the ecological and social impact of their transport. These companies are asking for logistics partners that are ahead in terms of sustainable innovation. These are some of the potential programmes we can guide you through to become such a pioneer.

CO2 neutrality

Many retailers and companies have made a carbon-neutrality commitment. So, they also require their logistics partners to share in this commitment. We will support you in this, with a greater focus on effective CO2 reduction in your own chain rather than on CO2 offset.

Sustainable mobility

Is the solution electric or hybrid, and what about hydrogen? The choice is not an easy one, and not to mention the impact it will have on your infrastructure. That is why it is important to look at the big picture and make the right choice for your unique situation.

New service models

Looking at your current activities from a sustainability angle will often lead you to discover new, surprising revenue models with interesting added value for your clients.

Natural cooling

Cooling systems are an important cost item for fresh food distributors. Moreover, cooling systems are subject to strict environmental standards. We will assist you in your search for the right installations for natural cooling.

Sustainable habits

You will be amazed at how many of our daily habits can easily be made sustainable. Taking a closer look at what has become barely noticeable for your employees can lead to very interesting—and often simple—changes in the behaviour of your employees.

Consulting

Our audits serve as the basis for mapping out the current situation and creating a plan of action to evolve towards the ideal future scenario.

Procurement

The action plan is put into effect by bringing together a team tailored to each new challenge. All participants are challenged to give their very best at competitive conditions, and we negotiate quality assurance with all parties involved.

Management

We are the go-to for all parties involved and report on the progress of the project, which guarantees the qualitative completion of each project.

The benefits of collaboration

Sustainable innovation is an important growth factor in the logistics sector, with partners making ever-higher demands to minimise the ecological and social impact of their transport. In a world of ever-increasing sustainability standards, it is interesting to look as far into the future as possible and adapt your organisation to the standards of the future.

Additional revenue

In a world that seems to be running out of opportunities, it is particularly interesting to use sustainability to develop new solutions for your customers and to be of even better service to them.

A stronger image

Sustainable innovation will help strengthen the image of a company, brand or product in the long term. This long-term approach ensures that brands continue to take consistent steps, with their 'name' becoming ever more valuable to clients, consumers or employees.

Lower costs

Sustainability innovation has quick and effective implications for a company's cost structure. Thanks to a new approach to processes and raw materials, energy consumption will decrease, waste will be reduced, there will be less staff turnover and the tax burden will decrease.

Long-term compliance

It has become a given that governments will adopt increasingly stringent measures with regard to the footprint of companies. However, clients and consumers will also impose ever-higher demands. Thanks to investments in sustainability, which already generate interesting benefits, you can ensure that your company remains relevant in the long term.
