Greener logistics with sustainable projects

The sustainable use of natural resources has been a high priority for us for many years – from our photovoltaic system to our own beehives right down to efficient tour planning, we rely on a variety of different measures to set LOXX up to be sustainable and future-focused.

Commitment to sparing environment

For us, pronounced environmentally conscious thinking and actions represent a self-evident obligation towards our fellow human beings, and they are also of great importance for the sustainable positive development of our company. The principles of our Environmental Policy are constituted by the sparing use of natural resources and, where this is not possible, the reduction of harmful influences on the environment.

Sustainable projects

Photovoltaic system

Solar power at the logistics centre

Since 2008, our solar installation has been producing climate-neutral electricity across 10,000 m² of roof space at the logistics centre. In 2022, around 377,000 kWh of electricity was fed into the grid, achieving CO2 savings of over 126,000 kilograms.

Rainwater discharge

Renaturation of the Emscher river

LOXX has already contributed to the successful renaturation of the Emscher river with clean rainwater since 2008. The precipitation from the roof and circulation areas is collected, cleaned underground and fed into the river. The Emscher has been considered renatured since the end of 2021.

Certified environmental standards

Our current quality and environmental certificates (QM, EM, SQAS) can be found in the download area.

Energy-saving measures

Energy-efficient property

Our halls have generous skylights and automatic lighting control. Fans on the hall ceilings ensure a pleasant temperature – without major energy expenditure. What's more, the switch to LED lighting significantly reduces power consumption in this area.

Electric charging stations for cars

Recharge with green electricity in the carpark

Four charging stations were built in the carpark in July 2023. These charging stations offer a total of eight charging points and can supply electrically powered cars simultaneously with up to 22 kW. The stations supply green electricity and are available to both visitors and employees.

Electric industrial trucks

Fewer CO2 emissions and greater energy efficiency

In the warehouse, our industrial trucks are gradually being converted to electrically powered pallet trucks, high-speed walkie pallet trucks and forklifts. This reduces CO2 emissions from 229 t to 0 t. In addition, the new battery-powered devices are significantly more energy efficient than those used previously.
