Reducing emissions is good for the planet, and for business

The smart, simple way to reduce emissions and support your sustainability goals

Let us show you how

We all depend on freight to deliver the goods we need for day to day life. But sadly, the transport industry is one of the world’s biggest polluters - and it’s getting worse. It’s predicted that by 2030, emissions from freight transport (rail, articulated trucks and rigid trucks) will be 28% of all transport emissions.

As a shipper, fleet owner, specialist vendor or logistics professional, you’re under increasing pressure from governments, consumers, partners and employees to operate more sustainably.

Netlogix is a Certified B Corporation

How is Netlogix helping reduce emissions?

Netlogix is committed to managing its operations in an environmentally sustainable and socially responsible manner, aligned to the commitments declared.

Simply by unlocking efficiencies and minimising empty kilometres, Netlogix helps ensure every route is more sustainable. By using in-depth data to match carriers’ availability to specific job requirements, we help reduce overall emissions and boost the sustainability performance of both shippers and carriers.

This has important flow-on effects in terms of our shippers sustainability performance, compliance with relevant governance frameworks, and reputation with customers and partners.

Reporting on emissions

As a technology-enabled transport network, Netlogix connects transport companies and their trucks into a single network to move freight for customers across the country.

Therefore, Scope 3 emissions relate primarily to freight moved by contracted transport companies on behalf of Netlogix customers. These are measured and monitored by customer, by transport company, by origin region and by delivery region.‍

In doing so, Netlogix is committed to reducing carbon emissions per freight unit, per kilometre travelled.

Our Scope 1 and 2 emissions are from fuel and electricity consumption.

In the five years to FY2025, we have achieved cumulative emissions reduction of 57.2% for scope 1 and 2 emissions compared to our baseline assessment in FY2020.

Our focus is on bringing our business model to a wider audience as it inherently moves more freight with less trucks, optimizing loads and reducing wasted empty kilometres. Alongside this we continue to minimize and reduce our Scope 1 and 2 where possible.

Cumulative Emissions Outcome: 57.2% decrease in NZ Scope 1 and 2

To date our Scope 1 emissions savings has been a total reduction of 67%, while Scope 2 emissions reduced 7%. Whilst our Scope 1 and 2 emissions are small, we have continued to take action to reduce our in-house emissions.

Here's how we did it:

  • Moved to a 100% renewable energy electricity provider.
  • Converted all light bulbs in our offices and Auckland cross dock and storage facility to LED. LEDs can save up to 85% of the electricity bill.
  • Replaced fuel-powered Hoists with Battery Electric Forklifts. Despite the uptick in electricity consumption, there was a huge reduction in burning fuel which contributed to the 67% reduction in our Scope 1 emissions and our overall reduction in emissions.
  • Reduced waste and increased recycling  by splitting waste in offices and warehouses (scope 3)

Emission Savings

Overall Netlogix Group emission savings (since our base year) equate to:

78,026 tonnes of waste going into landfill
836,459 LPG gas cylinders
293,136,046 plastic water bottles
1,156 hectares of land covered in trees
922,323 incandescent lamps to LEDs
5,608 return flights from AKL to SYD
