EPS collaborated with tray suppliers to produce eco-friendly foldable trays and explored trays for new product categories beyond fresh produce. Meanwhile, LPR partnered with wood suppliers who adhere to responsible sourcing with PFEC and FEC certification.
We follow the needs of our customers in the retail and logistics sector in Europe and are always looking for opportunities to grow together. Our clients are innovative, just as we are, and together we are building trusting and long-term relationships that build on a more efficient and sustainable future.
Together with transport companies, we worked towards further optimisation of the delivery and return of empty trays and pallets. Sharing information remains key to further optimisation across the supply chain. Moreover, we collaborate with them in our search for alternative transport opportunities such as biofuels, electric trucks or by boat or train.
Our company provides reusable trays and pallets to European retailers, helping them reduce CO2 emissions and achieve sustainability goals. By focusing on information sharing, we have improved logistics services, resulting in increased efficiency and cost savings for them and their suppliers.
Our circular business model is anchored in our network of external service suppliers in depots and service centres. We strengthen our relationships with external service providers by regularly engaging with them to build a professional and trusting relationship. We also ensure quality by setting requirements and through regular audits.
As we are an innovative company, working together with several knowledge partners to implement new pilots and further expand successful projects.
