We recognise the impact our work has on the environment — so we measure, reduce and offset our carbon emissions through transparent, actionable initiatives.
As part of that ongoing journey we proudly hold the Planet Mark Business Certification — achieved for the second consecutive year as of 31 December 2024 — a recognised symbol of our dedication to sustainable business practices across the group.
Measurable progress, verified every year.
Year-on-year reductions in Scope 1 & 2 emissions and expanded Scope 3 reporting (business travel, waste and upstream transport) are verified annually in our Planet Mark certificate.
Practical steps, taken year on year.
Real changes across our warehouses, fleet and operations — each one lowering our footprint.
Relocated our Dutch operation to a new, energy-efficient facility fitted with solar panels — cutting our carbon footprint while bringing renewable energy into the supply chain.
Launched two UK employee schemes — low-emission vehicles and greener commuting — reducing both personal and company emissions while supporting wellbeing.
Upgraded warehouse lighting from halogen to energy-efficient LED — better illumination, significantly less energy, a lower footprint.
Extended our emissions measurement to include business travel, waste and upstream transportation — giving a fuller, more honest picture of our impact.
Installed 186 rooftop solar panels generating clean energy for daily operations and feeding surplus back to the grid — plus six EV chargers (four 7kW, two 22kW), powered directly by the solar array.
Carbon-neutral courier services with CEC.
Our courier arm, Corporate Express Couriers (CEC), is part of the DHL GoGreen programme — offsetting the emissions of its transport and delivery operations through global reforestation and renewable-energy projects.
CEC continues to reduce its impact through ongoing improvements in fleet management, energy efficiency and waste reduction — so every delivery is part of a responsible supply chain.
Continuously improving, on every front.
Targeting a further 5% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 emissions by the end of 2025, while expanding our measurement of Scope 3.
Shifting to renewable energy sources across our offices and operational sites, building on our solar investments.
Empowering our team with the knowledge and tools to embrace sustainability in every role, every day.
Working with partners and suppliers to build a circular economy and cut environmental impact across the supply chain.
As we grow, protecting the planet's natural resources for future generations is essential. The work we do impacts the world — and we aim to lead by example.
We welcome our employees, clients and stakeholders to join us on this journey. Whether through sustainable practice, reducing personal emissions or collaborating on carbon-neutral projects, every step forward counts.
