Marseille, France: Ceva Logistics is taking the next step in its journey towards net zero with the launch of a new sub-brand to further develop its sustainable logistics services.
The new suite of Ceva Forplanet logistics services will enable customers to reduce the environmental impact of their supply chains by leveraging a range of low-carbon transport operations.
Ceva Forplanet provides precise data and CO2e calculations to ensure proper reporting as “many customers needing to accurately communicate about their activities”.
In the near-term, Ceva says it is committed to reducing its emissions through its warehouses, its fleet operations and its low-carbon services offered with carrier partners. The Ceva Forplanet services will address the vast majority of Ceva’s emissions, as scope 3 emissions account for 95% of the company’s 2023 level.
So far in 2024, Ceva has avoided more than 26,000 tons of emissions thanks to more than 10 million liters of sustainable maritime and aviation fuel. In addition, Ceva currently has more than 1,000 electric and low-carbon fuel vehicles operating across its ground operations and proposes rail and barge services as other modal shift services. One block train is the equivalent of taking 25 trucks off of the road, reducing road congestion and emissions (up to 90%). The company also has new services and pilot programs in development, including wind propulsion.
Mathieu Friedberg, chief executive, Ceva Logistics, said: “With the world around changing, action is required. ‘Acting for Planet’ isn’t just an empty phrase, but a guiding principle that must affect everything—down to the solutions we offer.
“With the launch of this new Ceva Forplanet sub-brand for our suite of solutions, we’re committing ourselves to both promote current decarbonisation efforts and develop better ways of sustainably supporting our customers’ supply chains in the future.”
