This conception affects the entire configuration of companies&#8217; processes, structures, transportation, distribution and storage systems. Therefore, the main objective is to find economic and ecological balance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Understand what green logistics is and how it works<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Green logistics aims to increase the sustainable development of companies and reduce the impacts of their activities on the environment that surrounds them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The idea is for the company to establish effective practices to exploit natural resources responsibly, avoiding generating waste and reducing the emission of pollutants into the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Among its main objectives, we can mention:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reduce carbon emissions from logistics operations and control their results. One of the most used methodologies for calculating greenhouse gas emissions levels is the international standard UNE-EN 16258:2013.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reduce air, soil, water and noise pollution, analyzing its impact at each of the logistical stages.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Make rational use of natural resources, recycling packaging and reusing containers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finding effective and economically viable solutions to reduce dependence on fossil fuels in the transport of goods.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Learn how green logistics differs from reverse logistics<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A very common confusion involves the distinction between green logistics and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/tecnotri.com.br\/pallets-plasticos-na-logistica-reversa\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">reverse logistics<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Contrary to what many people think, these two concepts do not mean the same thing, even though they are related and are guided by concern for the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In common, the two value recycling, remanufacturing and the use of reusable packaging. But the difference is that reverse logistics is mainly responsible for returning products and commercial return by companies. Its main objective is to improve the recycling of packaging, electronic products, fluorescent lamps, lubricating oils and pesticides.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Green logistics, in turn, focuses on broader aspects, such as reducing the use of packaging and reducing the environmental impact of industries. Therefore, reverse logistics is an integral part of green logistics, which is a broader concept, but does not mean the same thing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An important point is that both reverse logistics and green logistics are supported by the National Solid Waste Policy (Law n\u00ba 12,305\/10) of the Ministry of the Environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-41420\" src=\"https:\/\/tecnotri.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/logistica-verde-na-empresa.jpg\" alt=\"Implementing green logistics at Tecnotri\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>See how to implement green logistics in your company<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many measures can be adopted by companies to make their logistics processes more sustainable. In this way, it is possible to reduce waste through global process improvement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the purchasing and supply sector, sustainability criteria can be included when evaluating suppliers&#8217; proposals. You can, for example, choose to buy ecological packaging and limit the use of plastic.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the area of transport, you should opt for vehicles that restrict greenhouse gas emissions as much as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition, systems can be used to help plan product delivery routes, in order to save fuel and reduce the emission of polluting gases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the storage stage, aspects such as efficiency in water and energy consumption, the use of alternative energy sources and waste management must be prioritized.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is also possible to reduce movement within the warehouse with good location management and optimized planning of picking tasks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition, the waste generated must be managed with sustainable criteria. To achieve this, a waste classification process must be established according to the materials that will be recycled.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>See the advantages of using plastic pallets<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Due to its long useful life, the plastic pallet can be reused several times, as it is made of polyethylene<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">o and is completely recyclable. Therefore, it causes less environmental impact than wooden pallets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">plastic pallets are also lightweight, 100% recyclable, non-toxic, resistant to chemicals and have a useful life of over 10 years. Furthermore, they are washable and easy to clean.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By having characteristics such as lightness, resistance and constant weight, these products help to optimize logistics operations. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Therefore, they enable greater rationalization and standardization of the storage location, better use of physical space and acceleration of processes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The rotomolded plastic pallet also favors reverse logistics, as it has expressive identification of ownership. This feature can provide information for pallet management. Furthermore, it enables traceability using, for example, Radio Frequency Identification or RFID.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As we have seen, green logistics involves practices that make operations more efficient and sustainable, bringing many environmental and economic benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Did you like this article?
