The Review includes updates on CHEP and IFCO\u2019s sustainability programme and its progress towards its\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.brambles.com\/interactive-infographic\/\">2020 Sustainability Goals.<\/a> These goals are based on the company\u2019s Better Business, Better Planet, Better Communities, sustainability programme and are closely aligned with the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sustainabledevelopment.un.org\/?menu=1300\">United Nations\u2019 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Examples of Brambles\u2019 achievements reported in the 2017 Sustainability Review include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Better Business<\/strong>\u2013 Making customers\u2019 supply chains more efficient and investing in a safe, inclusive work environment where our employees can develop.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Brambles operates a circular business model, specialising in the sharing and reuse of unit load equipment including more than 590 million pallets, crates and containers. In FY17 customers\u2019 use of CHEP and IFCO platforms saved 1.6 million trees, 2.5 million metric tonnes of CO2\u00a0emissions and 1.4 million metric tonnes of solid waste. Brambles also initiated transport collaboration projects with over 200 customers to remove 64.7 million empty truck kilometres from the world\u2019s supply chains.<\/p>\n<p>These achievements have been recognised through multiple industry awards, including a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.chep.com\/resources\/media_releases\/20160127-CHEP_Europe_Awarded_EcoVadis_Gold_Recognition\/\">Gold award from EcoVadis<\/a> which specialises in supplier sustainability analysis. Brambles has also been ranked top of its industry category on the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sustainability-indices.com\/\">World Dow Jones Sustainability Index<\/a>\u00a0(DJSI) and received AAA ratings from the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) and Sustainalytics indices.<\/p>\n<p>To create a Better Workplace, Brambles is committed to achieving its goal of Zero Harm. The company made another large step towards that goal with both the CHEP and IFCO business units improving their safety performance in FY17. The financial year also saw a 78% increase in learning hours, with employees completing 1.73 days\u2019 worth of training each on average.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Better Planet<\/strong>\u2013 Reducing the environmental impact of Brambles\u2019 own operations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In FY17 99.1% of the timber used by CHEP came from certified sources. Brambles also eliminated plastic waste and raw material costs by recycling 22,600 tonnes of end-of-life plastic materials into new CHEP plastic pallets and IFCO reuseable plastic crates. Brambles operations also achieved a 7.8% reduction in carbon emissions per unit and 14.3% of the electricity it consumed came from renewable sources.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Better Communities<\/strong>\u2013 Positively contributing to the communities in which Brambles operates.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Brambles supports food rescue organisations, educational opportunity and environmental restoration projects by providing volunteers, corporate sponsorship and in-kind donations. All permanent Brambles, IFCO and CHEP employees have access to three days of paid volunteer leave every year. In total, Brambles\u2019 FY17 community investments were worth over $4,376,000, a 44% increase from FY16.<\/p>\n<p>Brambles\u2019 Head of Global Sustainability, Juan Jose Freijo, said:\u00a0 \u201cThis has been another fantastic year for sustainability at Brambles in which we have continued our excellent progress towards our 2020 goals. These achievements are only possible thanks to the end-to-end collaboration between our employees and our customers worldwide\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur commitment to sustainability is at the very heart of everything we do. Through the successful combination of our circular, \u201cshare and reuse\u201d business model, global scale and supply chain expertise, we are able to reduce operating costs and demand for natural resources, both in our own company and across the world\u2019s supply chains\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Notes to editors <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Learn more about Brambles\u2019 2020 Sustainability Goals <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/brambles\/review\/234450474\/b0f3e0f4ab\">through this video<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Learn more about Brambles\u2019 2017 Sustainability Report <a href=\"http:\/\/brambles.com\/sustainability-review\">on the Brambles website<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":16919,"template":"","news_categories":[139],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Brambles reports strong progress towards its 2020 Sustainability Goals - soundPR<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.soundpr.it\/news\/brambles-annuncia-importanti-progressi-nei-suoi-obiettivi-di-sostenibilita-2020\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"[:it]Brambles annuncia importanti progressi nei suoi obiettivi di sostenibilit\u00e0 2020[:en]Brambles reports strong progress towards its 2020 Sustainability Goals[:] - soundPR\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Brambles is the supply-chain logistics company operating primarily through the\u00a0CHEP\u00a0and\u00a0IFCO\u00a0brands Brambles, the global supply-chain logistics company operating in more than 60 countries, primarily through the CHEP and IFCO brands, has published its\u00a0Sustainability Review for the 2017\u00a0Financial Year (FY17).
