What is Green Logistics?
Logistics is a major global energy consumer and producer of emissions. However, there is an opportunity to save energy and protect the environment in many processes. Green Logistics is concerned with this principle.
It is intended to make logistics processes more efficient and environmentally friendly. A company's entire awareness of the environment should change with the aim of working both ecologically and economically.

How is Green Logistics implemented?
In order to implement awareness of Green Logistics, there is a variety of solutions available:
- Installation of solar cells on warehouse and office buildings
- Deployment of energy-saving industrial trucks and other materials handling equipment
- Improvement of storage efficiency by regularly checking ABC items
- Flexible adaptation of performance to requirements
Energy expenditure plays a particularly important role in the warehouse - around 40% of total internal costs are spent on this. The targeted saving and recovery of energy not only protects the environment, but also saves costs.
