Environmental impact

As part of the DANX Carousel Group, a frontrunner in critical spare parts distribution, we acknowledge our responsibility to enhance sustainability and minimise operational emissions. We have undertaken the initiative to lead Europe’s critical service logistics industry in decarbonising
transportation and logistics activities, with a target to reduce emissions by 40% by 2035 and 90% by 2050.

To fulfill this commitment, we will implement several measures. These include improving the efficiency of our transportation networks through fuel substitutions and product replacements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We will also conduct regular monitoring and reporting of our emissions to ensure continuous improvement.

Social responsibility

Our mission is driving positive change by actively engaging with and including our employees and our local communities across Europe. Employees wellbeing and safety, along with that of our partners, are paramount to us. We consistently improve safety measures, offer ADR courses, conduct yearly engagement surveys, and address stress-related absences.

We value diversity as an essential principle for a strong workforce and organisation, committing to gender equality while promoting equal access to learning and development opportunities that support our employees’ growth.

Through the DANX Carousel Foundation, we give back to communities whose projects are aligned with our values of ownership, learning, and caring, making a meaningful impact in the areas we serve.
