Committed to 100% carbon neutral deliveries

Carbon neutral commitment

Wherever you call home, we only have one Earth. That’s why DPDgroup is committed to fighting climate change with each and every parcel delivery. We do this by precisely measuring our carbon footprint per parcel, reducing it in any way we can, and offsetting the remaining emissions by funding clean energy projects around the world.
The result is 100% carbon neutral parcel delivery across Europe. All at no extra cost to our customers.
Our ambition to deliver 225 of the largest European cities with zero- and low-emission delivery means relies on our carbon neutral commitment.

How?

1.3 billion carbon neutral parcels delivered in 2019

-14% reduction in C02 emissions per parcel (vs. 2013) and -30% by 2025

100% of our transport & buildings energy emission offset in 2019 (1 046 184 tonnes CO2)

7,700 new low emission vehicles by 2025

Green delivery in 225 European cities by 2025

DPDgroup has announced its commitment to deliver 225 of the largest European cities with zero- and low-emission delivery means.

An offsetting programme to be proud of

Approved by the rigorous Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), our offsetting programme focuses on renewables, clean energy and circular economy projects. From wind energy projects in India to the conversion of landfill gas to clean electricity in Brazil, they not only foster sustainability, they improve quality of life for local communities. What’s more, our carbon offsetting is completely voluntary, not tax-exempt and we hold no equity investments in the projects we support.

United Nations Sustainable Development Goal

To combat climate change, we aim at reducing our CO2 emissions per parcel by 30% by 2025 (compared to 2013) and ensuring that 100% of our deliveries are carbon neutral.
