Sustainability
Moving towards a sustainable future with innovation
To us, sustainability means responsibility. We connect the environment and the economy and reduce our carbon footprint to a minimum. Our goal is to be carbon neutral by 2040. On top of this, we want at least 20 percent of transport kilometres covered by our vehicle fleet to generate zero emissions by 2030. With innovative technologies and optimized logistics processes, we are working towards a future where efficiency and environmental protection go hand in hand.
We are actively working on numerous initiatives to achieve our sustainability targets:
In our vehicle fleet, we are increasingly turning to alternative drive systems to replace fossil fuels. We start by testing different technologies to find the best solution for each transport area. Next, based on our experience, we choose which technologies to use in each area of operation. In doing so, we harmonize environmental and economic interests.
We power our charging infrastructure and business premises with solar and other renewable energy sources wherever possible. Our logistics center in Villmergen, for instance, generates over 1,300 MWh of solar power each year. Surplus electricity is fed into the local grid. This enables us to support regional production of eco-electricity. The building is also equipped with charging points for e-bikes and uses kinetic energy for lifts. In 2025, a total of 16 charging points for heavy commercial vehicles will be installed in the immediate vicinity of the new logistics center. We will use this infrastructure to charge our own e-trucks used for distribution.
We work with utility companies, energy suppliers and universities in order to promote sustainable logistics solutions. Through these partnerships, we foster the use of renewable energy sources and the introduction of low-emission transport. We are proud to be certified by significant bodies.
