In our commitment to environmental stewardship and corporate responsibility, BLR unveils its comprehensive Environment Improvement Plan. Focused on fleet management and office operations, this plan underscores BLR's dedication to minimizing its ecological footprint and pioneering greener practices. Through targeted initiatives in biofuel adoption, fleet management, business travel optimization, and energy reduction, BLR aims to set a precedent for environmentally conscious practices within its operational framework.
Our #ZeroCarbonInitiative is a testament to our enduring commitment to a greener tomorrow. By embracing
innovation today, we’re ensuring our #Legacy of responsibility continues for generations to come.
At BLR Logistiks, we’re proud to introduce our first fleet of electric trucks on the road—serving IKEA between
Mumbai Port and Pune. Despite challenges like limited charging infrastructure, we chose to invest in a more
sustainable path, because it’s the right thing to do for our industry and our planet.
A greener road. A brighter future. We’re paving the path, one electric kilometer at a time.
In 2023, BLR proudly launched the ZeroCarbonProject 2040, marking a decisive step towards decarbonizing the logistics industry by 2040.
We have been using Biodiesel (B20-B30) in our fleet since 2017. Our aim is to increase our consumption of biodiesel, until we make a complete transition to EV vehicles.
Adopting renewable energy practices and emphasizing energy consumption efficiency, we have been powering our warehouses using solar power.
The first step towards decarbonizing is to understand your GHG footprint that starts by measuring your current carbon emissions so that you can develop achievable targets towards lowering them. Our software platform helps us measure, analyze, report, and act on our ESG and sustainability performance. It gives us accurate real-time data of carbon emissions on a shipment level, in conformance with the Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) framework.
BLR's Waste Management Policy aligns with environmental regulations, emphasizing waste reduction, re-use, and recycling. We adhere to The Hazardous Wastes Rules (2008), The E-Waste Rules (2011), and The Environment Protection Act (1986). Our approach involves sustainable practices like double-sided printing and tire retreading, aiming to minimize waste production. We collaborate with certified waste management companies for paper recycling and tire repurposing.
In our commitment to environmental stewardship, we aim to cultivate a waste-conscious work ethic, promote recycled materials, and minimize waste through strategic purchasing. Our waste hierarchy approach guides efforts in waste reduction and proper handling.
BLR ensures responsible waste handling and storage, complying with legislative requirements. Our waste is handled and disposed of by certified companies in an environmentally friendly manner according to legislation.
Our waste management dashboard allows real-time tracking of waste and helps plan for timely pickup and disposal of all kinds of waste from our facilities. It gives us visibility of our waste production so that we can understand and set targets for decreasing our waste production.
