Make your supply chain sustainable and reach your corporate responsibility goals
Environmental sustainability is at the core of Convoy’s mission of transporting the world with endless capacity and zero waste.
According to the EPA, heavy-duty full truckload freight accounts for more than 205 million metric tons of CO2 emissions per year. Today, 72 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent emissions are the result of empty miles.
Convoy’s technology already is making progress in reducing carbon emissions by enhancing the ability to connect shipments more effectively. Convoy’s automated reload program reduces empty miles from the industry standard of 35% to 19% by bundling shipments into a single job for a driver. If the industry as a whole is able to achieve the same efficiency improvements that Convoy has seen on our bundled shipments, it would reduce CO2 emissions by 32 million metric tons.
Taking 6.9 million passenger vehicles off the roads for a year
Planting 536 million tree seedlings that grow for 10 years.
1.4 billion trash bags recycled instead of landfilled.
Today, 74% of S&P 500 companies have corporate environmental impact goals specific to sustainability and carbon reduction. Progress against these goals has historically come from places outside the shipping supply chain, such as investing in renewable energy or reducing excess packaging. Aligned with our mission to reduce waste, Convoy has become a key partner to companies like Waiākea, CHEP, and Anheuser-Busch in achieving their sustainability targets.
Convoy is a proud partner of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s SmartWay Transport Partnership, which measures and benchmarks freight transportation efficiency.
Convoy is a corporate member of Sustainable Brands®, the premier global community of brand innovators who are shaping the future of commerce worldwide.
