Sustainability

Sustainable business begins with low carbon supply chains. Here is how we think about it, and how you can ship greener.

Our approach

Find out what we have to offer and how we integrate sustainability into our operations to reduce environmental impacts for your supply chain.

Every shipment has an environmental footprint. We look for ways to move packages more efficiently, use less material and help our customers make greener choices.

We are still growing, and we are committed to improving step by step.

Sustainable shipping

Where we focus

Four ways to reduce the impact of every delivery

Smarter routes

Planning efficient routes so packages travel fewer unnecessary miles.

Right-sized packaging

Using the packaging a shipment actually needs, and no more.

Lower-carbon options

Offering slower, lower-emission modes such as ground and ocean freight.

Less paper

Online tracking, billing and reporting so fewer documents are printed.

Your choice of transport matters

Typical emissions per kilogram shipped. Exact figures depend on the route and the load.

Ocean freightLowest
Ground shippingMedium
Air freightHighest

Air is the fastest, and it produces the most emissions. If your delivery date allows, a slower mode is the greener choice.

Ship greener: tips for you

Small changes that make a real difference

Pick the right box size

A snug box means less filler and more parcels per vehicle.

Combine shipments

Sending items together uses fewer trips than sending them one by one.

Plan ahead

Allowing extra time lets you choose ground or ocean instead of air.

Reuse and recycle packaging

Use recycled or reusable materials, and reuse the boxes you receive.

Go digital

Use online tracking and digital receipts instead of printed copies.

Get the address right

A correct address avoids failed deliveries and repeat trips.
