Envirogistic Group is partnering closely with the leading global logistics providers to address wide spread opportunities to improve their commitments to sustainability and leverage currently available and emerging best practices.
Sustainable logistics is essentially about making logistics, freight and transportation more sustainable, by minimising the environmental impact of the practices involved in these processes.
There are various ways you can implement sustainability into your logistics services. Here are some examples of best practice when it comes to sustainable logistics:
Sustainability assessment - assess your overall logistics strategy to see where more sustainable practices could be implemented.
Optimise your travel routes - minimise unnecessary travel and waiting times to reduce your fuel consumption.
Renewable energy or technology - review the potential to incorporate more green or renewable energy or technologies into your logistics strategy.
Avoid wasted energy on partial capacity – minimise waste space and energy by ensuring your containers and transport are packed to maximum capacity.
Sustainable packaging – introduce recyclable or sustainable packaging into your logistics strategy.
Use integrated logistics – align your supply chain across all departments to maximise your overall efficiency.
Greener transport options – consider greener alternatives to your transport where possible, e.g. electric-powered vehicles.
