Davies Turner takes the Pledge to offer carbon emissions reporting

The Davies Turner Group, one of the UK’s largest privately-owned logistics providers, has signed a partnership agreement with Pledge, a carbon emissions measurement and offsetting platform for freight forwarders.

The partnership sees Davies Turner integrating Pledge’s emissions measurement, reporting and offsetting platform into its TMS, customer portal and other systems.

This will allow Davies Turner to help its customers track, measure, report, and reduce the carbon footprint of their supply chains.

Alan Williams, Director of Davies Turner PLC  says: “The need to understand and address the environmental impact of freight forwarders’ activities within global supply chains grows by the day."

"Davies Turner has a strong track record on environmentally-friendly initiatives. Our partnership with Pledge will enable us to provide clients with a mechanism via which they can measure and report on the carbon emissions within their international supply chains.”

For several years the Environmental Management System in place at most of the Davies Turner Group’s regional distribution centres in the UK has been certified to the ISO14001:2015 standard.

That is evidence that environmental responsibility is of great importance to Davies Turner, and it has been actively involved in environmental management initiatives at site level, through re-using, recycling and retrospectively installing heat pumps in favour of gas at some sites, for example.
