DP World launches EcoRoute sustainable logistics solution
DP World is now marketing its new EcoRoute initiative, a package of solutions that aims to help businesses optimise supply chain performance while reducing emissions by combining network design, lower-carbon logistics solutions, emissions measurement and strategic partnerships.
Optimised supply chain networks help balance cost, speed and emissions to create more efficient and resilient supply chains, DP World states, while lower carbon solutions encourage modal shift programmes, alternative fuel and electric transport solutions, and lower carbon warehouses and facilities. In India, DP World has, for example, recently helped a customer reduce transport emissions by 78% on the Chennai–Kolkata corridor through a multimodal rail to coastal solution, while improving reliability and lowering logistics costs.
Ecoroute also offers Carbon Insetting programmes to help customers reduce emissions within their own supply chains, addressing Scope3 emissions, while a Carbon Emissions Calculator, powered by EcoTransIT World and aligned with ISO 14083, provides end-to-end visibility of emissions across transport modes, helping customers identify reduction opportunities.
Ayla Bajwa, DP World Group Senior Vice President – Sustainability, says: “EcoRoute is about turning ambition into action. It gives our customers the tools, insights and partnerships needed to reduce emissions across complex supply chains, while also delivering broader environmental and social impact. By connecting sustainability with real operational change, we are helping businesses build supply chains that are fit for the future.”
