Green Information

With the rapid development of information technology, OOCL Logistics has endeavoured to achieve paperless operations to save our forests and at the same time enhance the efficiency and accuracy of information flow. We encourage the collaboration of our logistics stakeholders in establishing paperless communication channels.

Our Initiatives:
  • Implementation of paperless information flow between clients, vendors and OOCL Logistics offices
  • Implementation of paperless archiving systems

Warehouses often consume more materials than other logistics activities while generating additional waste products. OOCL Logistics makes every effort to conserve the resources and reduce the amount of waste produced by our warehouse operations.

Our Initiatives:
  • Reduction of the use of paper, water and electricity
  • Reuse and recycling of warehouse materials
  • Designing energy-efficient warehouse layouts
  • Reducing and managing waste
  • Utilising electric forklifts

Transportation is considered a section in logistics operations that has substantial negative impact on the environment. We strive to minimise the carbon emissions in cargo movements locally and globally.

Our Initiatives:
  • Modernise our company-owned vehicle fleet
  • Utilisation of green fuels
  • Promotion of modal shift
  • Optimisation of load factors
  • Redefinition of route planning
  • Promotion of eco-driving training
  • Close management of fleet maintenance and replacements
  • Retrofitting of catalytic converters

OOCL Logistics’ green measures are implemented beyond our frontline operations. We have initiated wide-ranging green practices in our offices, worldwide, to protect the environment.

Our Initiatives:
  • Reduced usage of paper, water, electricity and toner cartridges
  • Recycling waste (e.g. paper, plastics, metal)
  • Implementing energy-saving policies, including efficient power, lighting and office temperature management
  • Providing green training to all employees
  • Reduction of business travel
  • Organisation of green activities

Our green commitment goes beyond our business operations. Since 2007, we have organised an OOCL Group Green Week, held first week of every July, to support environmental care. We do our utmost to support green development in the community by participating in voluntary activities, green education and green project sponsorship.

Our Initiatives:
  • Enhancing green awareness within our communities
  • Making green contributions to society
  • Sponsorship or donations to green organisations

OOCL Logistics green operations commitment extends to our subcontractors, where we work with environmentally responsible subcontractors as a crucial factor in truly green operations. We have established various measures to ensure the green performance of our subcontractors as well as encouraging them to work with us to achieve shared sustainability goals.

Our Initiatives:
  • Embedding green criteria in subcontractor evaluations
  • Setting up green requirements
  • Reviewing green performance
  • Providing green training and guidance
