Reduction of resource and energy consumption per produced unit
For SCHÜTZ responsible care means optimized processes and solutions, right down to the finest detail. This key target unites the responsible use of materials and care for the environment with the creation of added value across our customers’ entire
supply chain.
Ambitious environmental goals
In keeping with our responsible care concept, we have set ourselves environmental goals which are constantly monitored and refined:
One of the best examples is the SCHÜTZ TICKET SERVICE, launched in 1993, which stands for the professional collection and reconditioning of millions of used IBCs.
YOUR ADVANTAGE: By using our system, you save costs and help reduce CO₂ emissions through reconditioning with every IBC compared with a new IBC.
Example: Freight and logistics optimisation
With every truck kilometre we save, we reduce CO₂ emissions within our logistics processes. We therefore use state-of-the-art planning software to maximise load capacity utilisation and optimise route planning for inbound and outbound logistics. The increased use of XXL trucks is intended to further improve efficiency.
Wherever possible, we use alternative methods of transport, such as rail and river boats. In Europe our facilities have their own railway sidings, which has enabled us to shift approx. 20,000 truckloads of steel deliveries from road to rail.
