With its new Emissions Project, Rotom provides clearer and more consistent emissions data across its European operations. This gives customers a better view of their supply chain footprint and a partner that actively supports their sustainability goals.
The Emissions Project helps Rotom understand its environmental impact in a structured way. It tracks emissions across different parts of the business and shows how the right logistics practices reduce CO₂. Analysing this data through all four emission scopes creates a solid framework for understanding Rotom’s footprint and the avoided emissions enabled by its sustainable load carriers and circular logistics services.
| Emission Scope | Definition |
|---|---|
| Scope 1 | Direct emissions from sources that Rotom owns or controls. |
| Scope 2 | Indirect emissions from purchased electricity, heating or cooling used by Rotom. |
| Scope 3 | Other indirect emissions across the value chain outside Rotom’s direct control. |
| Scope 4 | Emissions avoided through the use of Rotom’s load carriers or services. |
Scope 4 in particular offers strong value for customers, as many of Rotom’s circular logistics solutions directly support emission reduction in their own supply chains. For example, reused pallets, pallet rental and pallet repair extend product lifecycles and reduce the need for new materials. By choosing these solutions, companies can cut emissions and benefit from more resource efficient logistics.
Sharayu Mishal, Sustainability Officer at Rotom, emphasises why the Emissions Project creates a win-win situation for Rotom and its customers:
“Seeing both our generated and avoided emissions gives us the insights to improve our operations and help customers lower their footprint as well. It shows that choosing the right partner is where greener logistics begins.”
Rotom’s commitment to sustainability and quality is also reflected in its recognised certificates, giving customers confidence that its processes and services meet high, independently verified standards. This reinforces the company’s role as a reliable, low impact partner within customers’ supply chains.
