SUSTAINABILITY

Over the years we have always acted to implement environmentally friendly practices in our workplaces. In 2009 we gained the ISO14001 Global Environmental Management Standard and continually look to reduce our CO₂e.

As a 4PL we are carrier agnostic and deliberately don't own any of our own vehicles to move goods however, we have always recognised that as a service business we can still take steps to reduce and manage our CO₂e.

CCL initiatives include upgrading our fleet of company cars to electric, with charging points at our Troon and Derby offices. We also monitor and report the CO₂e of hotel stays, business car mileage and travel. We've implemented recycling in all of our office spaces and where possible our lighting has been changed to LED and continue to proactively source suppliers and products with the least environmental impact.  Our people can take advantage of the cycle to work scheme and we keep them engaged about environmental information with a with a quarterly environmental email.

As well as tangible changes we have also joined multiple communities, including CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) and Sedex.

In 2023 John Murray joined as Head of Sustainability, his first focus was to gain GLEC accreditation for Greener Routes, our carbon tracking solution.

This is all underpinned by our environmental policy.

As we work towards our own goals, we appreciate the challenges businesses face measuring and reporting their Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions correctly.

By having logistics data on myCCL it became possible to calculate emissions with a high degree of accuracy. So to support our customers in achieving their sustainability goals, we have developed Greener Routes, our carbon tracking solution, which allows you to measure your Scope 3 emissions associated with the transportation of all shipments booked through myCCL. Get access to a statement that allows you to clearly see trends and analyse your emissions data.
