Sustainable development

Our company's actions in terms of respect for the environment and social practices.

Our group has taken several initiatives to protect the environment:

• A removals exchange program between our group's companies to avoid empty vehicle returns. This program, managed via our intranet, is operational 24/7.
• Thanks to our subsidiary Combidem Transport, we have created a pool of 300 rail-borne swap bodies. It enables our members to send each other moving boxes that are rail/road compatible. These techniques eliminate the need for road vehicles over long distances, and reduce traffic nuisance and pollution, as well as work and family constraints for our staff.
• Controlling fuel consumption: regular eco-driving training for our drivers thanks to a partnership with AFTRAL (Apprendre et se Former en TRAnsport et Logistique). Preferential use of less polluting vehicles.
• Every year, our packaging suppliers provide us with proof of the proportion of recycled materials used in their products.

We are attentive to the strict application of social rules in the application of employment contracts with our members.
