Carbon neutral

The company’s net CO2 emissions have been brought down to zero across scope 1 and 2 of the standardised Greenhouse Gas Protocol. This covers direct emissions generated from the burning of fuel and indirect emissions resulting from the production of electricity purchased.

CHEP vice-president, northern Europe Matt Quinn, says: “I couldn’t be prouder of this milestone, but the work doesn’t stop here. The real challenge lies ahead of us in advocating for our customers and suppliers to become carbon neutral in their operations too, covering the so-called scope 3.

“We’ll continue to extend and build new partnerships with our customers and suppliers and find the best available low and zero-carbon products and services to decarbonise our entire supply chain.”
