Solutions for a greener planet
[ November 26, 2024 // Chris Lewis ]CMA CGM Group’s Ceva Logistics arm has launched a Forplanet sub-brand to unify and further develop its sustainable logistics solutions.
The suite of logistics solutions enables customers to reduce the environmental impact of their supply chains by leveraging a range of low carbon transport and circular economy solutions. In addition, with many customers needing to accurately communicate about their activities, Ceva Forplanet solutions provide precise data and CO2e calculations tfor reporting.
The solutions will address the vast majority of CEVA’s emissions, as Scope 3 emissions account for 95% of the company’s 2023 figure.
Forplanet includes solutions around measuring, optimizing and shifting to low carbon transport such as modal shift and alternative fuels for air, ocean and ground transport.
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. It currently has some 1,000 electric and low carbon fuel vehicles in its ground operations along with rail and barge and other modal shift solutions.
It also offers a consulting approach for customers interested in a deeper partnership to transform their supply chains through a five-step transformation program. Customers seeking more detail or wanting to assess their shipments independently can use various tools provided by Ceva, including eco-calculators accessible on its website and within the MyCEVA digital platform.
Ceva Logistics is also actively promoting circular economies across various industries and collaborates with customers and other industry partners to develop closed-loop supply chains, reverse logistics processes and product take-back programs (including repair, refurbishment and resale). It is a partner in various pilot programs underway in the automotive sector dealing with tyres and with electric vehicle batteries.
Forplanet packaging replaces single-use options with reusable packaging and consumables within supply chains.
