Concerned about helping to limit global warming and fully involved in the issues linked to the decarbonisation of industry, Omelcom carried out its first Greenhouse Gas emissions report in 2022 and structured a decarbonisation plan for its activities. This action plan is structured around 5 areas of work:
- Steering/guidance
- Eco-design
- Low-carbon purchases
- Travel
- Logistics, Freight
As the shipper, we therefore wanted to integrate the FRET21 system of the EVE programme supported by ADEME, to better take into account, the impact of transport in our sustainable development strategy, by benefiting from personalised support from transport experts and access to specific calculations and reporting tools.
The goal is to execute tangible measures focused on decreasing CO2 emissions generated by our logistics operations and to consistently track their impact over time.
We are ambitious!
To foster a more environmentally conscious logistics chain, we’re dedicating our investments to the four key avenues of transport decarbonisation:
AREA 1: Loading rate
Enhance vehicle loading efficiency by stacking pallets and streamlining operations to optimise box arrangements, thereby eliminating unnecessary groupings.
Reduction: 0.52 tonnes CO2e
AREA 2: Distance travelled
Develop direct deliveries from suppliers to our subcontractors without being redirected to the Omelcom head office first
Reduction: 0.20 tonnes CO2e
AREA 3: Means of transport
Minimise the proportion of air import flows by transitioning towards maritime transport methods.
Reduction: 111.34 tonnes CO2e
AREA 4: Responsible purchasing
Make conscientious procurement decisions by expanding the percentage of service providers engaged in CO2 or EVCOM objective systems, promoting sustainability across our supply chain.
Reduction: 0.06 tonnes CO2e
