Vanderlande’s Sustainability Report FY2025 is out now! Find out how we’re reducing carbon emissions, creating circular solutions, improving wellbeing in the workplace and doing good business.
Sustainability is a strategic priority for Vanderlande, and the report reveals how this is now integrated into its ways of working, not just internally, but also through collaboration with customers and suppliers in the value chain.
The publication includes many highlights of work undertaken in FY2025. For example, the company:
- helped Heathrow Airport lower its carbon footprint by installing more energy efficient motors on a baggage conveyor belt
- trained research and development engineers in sustainable design to help them make better decisions about the materials they select for use in the company’s solutions
- implemented a process to manage leftover parts and equipment, which can then be reused or resold
- and had its roadmap to cut emissions through to FY2034 validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.
The report was written in line with standards issued by the Global Reporting Initiative and marks a step up towards compliance with the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). For the first time, it includes the results of Vanderlande’s double materiality assessment (DMA).
“Our company has ambitious growth plans and sustainability will help us achieve them,” says Vanderlande CEO Andrew Manship. “In FY2025, we updated our sustainability strategy to focus on areas where the greatest impact can be made, both externally and internally. In addition, it is more tangible and more firmly focused on business opportunities. I’m also grateful to our suppliers and customers who are working with us to improve the sustainability of the logistics industry.”
