The transport sector is a complex field – it is an important service for society, while being considered a major environmental nuisance. It is therefore essential to take greater and more effective steps to accelerate sustainability.
We are committed to real and lasting change. We make targeted efforts toward sustainability – in the areas of environmental protection, social responsibility and responsible management.
We are constantly adopting new technologies to make every aspect of our operations greener, from electric vans and parcel locker networks to software solutions that optimise delivery rounds.
We are the first global parcel delivery company whose short- and long-term carbon reduction targets have been endorsed by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). We are already working today to reduce emissions throughout our value chain by 90% and reach the net-zero emission target by 2040.
Sustainability is not only social responsibility for environmental management, but also a strategic direction that ensures long-term value creation for our partners, customers and all stakeholders, ensuring the continued sustainability of our business in the future."

Plan the receival of your delivery
When ordering online, consider the most convenient way for you to receive your parcel. Will you be at home to receive your parcel from the courier or will you pick it up from a parcel locker? Pick up your parcel on foot or by bike.
Make any changes in due time
If the courier’s time of arrival does not suit you, make arrangements in the self-service environment as soon as possible: change the date or redirect the parcel to a parcel locker. This will help us avoid unnecessary trips.
Make informed purchasing decisions
Carefully plan what you want to buy and only order products you will use. If the product you have bought turns out to be unsuitable, instead of leaving it lying around, return it to the seller or find a new owner, for example via a re-use platform.
Re-use packaging material
Many online shops will allow you to opt for re-used packaging when ordering a product. Likewise, when sending a parcel, think about whether you might have an old unbroken transport container you can re-use.
