Cold Chain Federation webinar: advances in route optimisation

Reading, UK: The Cold Chain Federation is addressing the latest advances in routeing in a webinar on 1 March between 12.00 – 13.15pm.

To tackle climate change, countries are being asked to come forward with ambitious 2030 emissions reductions targets that align with reaching net zero by the middle of the century. 

Reducing the associated carbon footprint of cold chain warehouses is an important consideration for all companies who want to act sustainably, the federation says.

Operating a carbon neutral cold chain warehouse is something many companies will aspire to, but they may not have the resources to retrofit solar panels, rainwater irrigation, geothermal heat pumps and special cooling systems.

Instead, a more accessible route to take can be the introduction of a warehouse management system and automation technology in the warehouse. This can deliver benefits that have a significant impact on energy/resource consumption levels and carbon footprint. This webinar will detail five examples of how a warehouse management system can reduce carbon emissions in a cold chain warehouse.
