CO2 Reduction in Logistics
We are working to reduce our logistics-related CO2 emission at every stage from procurement to sales. To reduce the environmental impact of transportation, we are promoting modal shifts by switching from air to sea and from road to rail or ferry transport.
We are also making an active effort in improving transport loading efficiency by promoting “container round use” which means turning import containers to reuse them for exports. In addition, we are in partnership with other companies to enhance co-loading as a way of reducing the total transportation distance.
Post-pandemic stabilization in international logistics has supported the reduction of international transport-related CO2 emissions by 21% through the progress of shifting from air to sea.
Elsewhere, we are working to improve transport loading efficiency by realizing smaller packaging and promoting re-used packaging materials as well as using eco-friendly packaging materials. Installing solar panels on our warehouses contributed to reduce environmental impacts in logistics by utilizing renewable energy.
