Environment – Examples of Our CSR Actions

  • When purchasing new equipment, we prioritize low CO2 emissions, low fuel consumption, and optimal safety for our drivers and fellow road users. All our transport equipment is maintained in-house to ensure delivery reliability. Additionally, we clean our fleet in our own car wash, using mostly recycled water.
  • We plan very efficiently, optimizing the number of kilometers driven in relation to the load factor.
  • In our warehouse, we opt for electric vehicles.
  • In the office, we minimize the use of materials such as paper, ink, and envelopes by working with digital information sharing.
  • Waste streams are processed under very strict conditions. For example, plastic, cardboard, and paper are separated and disposed of accordingly. Our waste processor ensures environmentally friendly and responsible processing.
  • At Harselaarseweg, we generate our own energy. 5,300 solar panels on the roof provide green electricity.

Employees

  • We consider good working conditions and regular (re)training for our employees to be of evident importance.
  • For each vacancy, we assess whether the workplace is suitable for or can be adapted to accommodate an employee with a disability.
  • New employees are given a warm welcome, including an introduction to the company, CSR policy, and safe working practices.
