2030 Emission Targets
Lowering the environmental impact is a business imperative. We fully comprehend the amount of CO₂ emissions that the transport industry is responsible for creating. With that in mind, we’ve set ambitious goals to reduce our carbon footprint significantly in the coming years.
We set our emission targets according to the GHG Protocol corporate standard, differentiated into three scopes. Scopes 1 and 2 are the direct and indirect emissions created as a result of doing daily business at our offices and warehouses. These include our fuel consumption of owned vehicles and heating sources as well as emissions from energy generation by our utility provider, which we use to facilitate our daily business in our warehouses and offices. Our target is to reduce these emissions by at least 40% (base 2019) by 2030.
Steps being taken for Scopes 1 & 2:
Replacing company cars with electric cars
Investing in photovoltaic systems on our premises
Modernizing our warehouses and office buildings
Sourcing renewable energy suppliers
Scope 3 includes all other emissions that occur in our value chain, like the emission from our transport operations, business travels and staff commuting. We aim to reduce our scope 3 emissions by a minimum of 20% until 2030 (base 2019).
Steps being taken for Scope 3:
Limiting business travel
Sourcing eco-friendly carriers
Encouraging environment-friendly staff commuting
Promoting CO₂-reduced transport alternatives to our customers
