DPD is certified according to the environmental standards DIN/ISO 9001 and 14001 and has been committed to green, resource- and environmentally friendly delivery with its sustainability program since 2006. For about 10 years, DPD has been a global pioneer in the logistics industry, investing in climate protection projects worldwide and since 2012 has been the first service provider in Germany to ship every parcel 100% climate neutral.
Through the Group-wide sustainability strategy, DPD focuses on those areas where change can be made immediately and which are closely linked to its core business. This balances all CO2 emissions and creates efficient and intelligent solutions for urban delivery.
DPD strives to achieve a steady reduction in CO2 per parcel, relies on alternative drives such as electric vehicles for more environmentally friendly parcel delivery and, among other things, cargo bikes to reduce traffic congestion in cities. Micro depots will be set up as a storage location and charging station for the cargo bicycles, while pickup parcel shops, parcel boxes and parcel stations will serve as alternative collection points.
