CEVA Logistics has announced a new sub-brand — CEVA FORPLANET — to unify and further develop its sustainable logistics solutions.
It said that the new suite of CEVA FORPLANET logistics solutions enables customers to reduce the environmental impact of their supply chains by leveraging a range of low carbon transport and circular economy solutions.
In addition, it noted that many customers need to communicate their activities accurately, and CEVA FORPLANET solutions provide precise data and CO2e calculations to ensure proper reporting.
As part of the CMA CGM Group, CEVA Logistics is committed to reaching net zero by 2050.
In the near term, CEVA is committed to reducing its emissions through three main levers: its warehouses, fleet operations and low-carbon solutions offered by carrier partners.
The CEVA FORPLANET solutions will address the vast majority of CEVA's emissions, as scope 3 emissions account for 95% of the company's 2023 level.
As the new suite for its sustainable logistics offering, CEVA FORPLANET includes solutions for measuring, optimizing and shifting to low-carbon transport. The solutions include modal shift and alternative fuels for air, ocean and ground transport.
So far, in 2024, CEVA has avoided more than 26,000 tons of emissions thanks to more than 10 million litres of sustainable maritime and aviation fuel.
In addition, CEVA said it currently has more than 1,000 electric and low-carbon fuel vehicles operating across its ground operations and proposes rail and barge solutions as other modal shift solutions.
One block train is the equivalent of taking 25 trucks off the road, reducing road congestion and emissions (up to 90%). The company is also developing new solutions and pilot programs, including wind propulsion.
"With the world around changing, action is required. As one of our core CSR pillars, 'Acting for Planet' isn't just an empty phrase but a guiding principle that must affect everything—down to the solutions we offer," said Mathieu Friedberg, CEO, CEVA Logistics.
"With the launch of this new CEVA FORPLANET sub-brand for our suite of solutions, we're committing ourselves to both promote current decarbonization efforts and develop better ways of sustainably supporting our customers’ supply chains in the future," he added.
