El Corte Ingles achieves significant environmental savings thanks to CHEP

Thanks to the use of CHEPs pooling system, El Corte Inglés has managed to reduce its CO2 emissions by 55% compared to the single-use pallet.

CHEP and El Corte Inglés have collaborated together for the last 20 years, working together to achieve environmental savings. Thanks to the use of the CHEP pooling pallet, in the last year El Corte Inglés has avoided more than 1,200 tons of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, equivalent to 29 round the world trips by truck.

In addition, it has also saved 1,093,261 dm3 of wood, equivalent to 1,056 trees, and 111,110 kg of waste or, in other words, 26 complete trucks.

CHEP has recently awarded El Corte Inglés with a Sustainability Certificate, obtained by those companies that achieve significant environmental savings derived from the use of reusable pallets during their logistics activity.
