GREEN LOGISTICS
KALEIDO is committed to a competitive, global, innovative logistics, based on the respect for the environment in all its activities. Hence, the line of research GREEN LOGISTICS is born, that seeks to develop a sustainable business model and to offer “green” solutions to its customers but without compromising on competitiveness. One of the latest developments has been the calculation tool KARBON TRACK, a pioneer system of GHG (greenhouse gases) emissions measurement of the projects in which KALEIDO is involved.
This tool, contrary to others, is based on international protocols and independent verification ensuring comparability and the correct calculation of the results issued.
