Our Commitment to Sustainability

Focusing on the future

 

Environmental challenges have never been more critical or urgent than they are today. At CPG Logistics, reducing waste and minimising the environmental impact of our operations is at the core of our commitment to sustainability.

As part of this effort, we have calculated our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for our 2023 baseline year and created a Carbon Reduction Plan, outlining the key actions we are taking to drive meaningful progress. For further insights into our methodology, initiatives, and goals, explore our Carbon Reduction Plan.

CPG Logistics have been assessed by EcoVadis and awarded a bronze rating, reflecting the quality of our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) management system. This assessment analysed our practices across four key areas: the environment, labour, ethics, and sustainable procurement. These insights help guide our continuous improvement journey.

There are three key areas driving our carbon footprint where we focus our sustainability efforts:

100% Renewable Electricity: We are committed to transitioning to 100% renewable electricity across all our facilities by 2032 and continue to explore opportunities to accelerate this transition.

Efficient Distribution: Transport and distribution account for 83% of our total emissions. To address this, we partner with reputable UK and global carriers to optimise distribution efficiency, leverage parcel and pallet networks, and work with carriers committed to decarbonising their fleets.

Sustainable Packaging: We constantly review our packaging options to minimise the environmental impact whilst maintaining product protection. All our packaging is sourced from FSC-approved producers, ensuring sustainability at the source.

We are also committed to integrating environmental, social, and economic considerations into our procurement processes. We focus on lowering carbon emissions through behavioural changes and collaboration with key suppliers striving to reduce their own impact.

Across our business we actively drive initiatives to reduce waste, reuse and recycle goods wherever possible. Our sustainability strategy continually evolves, balancing short-term actions with long-term objectives. Additionally, through our partnership with Treeapp we plant trees every month contributing to positive environmental and social impacts in communities worldwide.
