Does the well-being of the planet lie at the heart of your heart? Good for you, because at InPost we have a strong sense of responsibility for the environment! We already know that Paczkomat® InPost is the most environmentally friendly logistics solution for e-commerce. Act together with us! Choosing the right form of delivery for your online purchases has incredible ECO power.
The popularity of online shopping continues to grow - a trend that is sure to continue for years to come. This is why education on how to consciously choose ecological delivery is becoming increasingly important. To this end, we are launching a series of activities to promote an eco-friendly lifestyle. We are counting our carbon footprint and want to share data with our customers that shows that the InPost Parcel Machine is helping to reduce CO2.
The first stage is the 'Eco-lovers choose Paczkomat InPost' campaign promoting online shopping with eco-delivery to Paczkomat machines. We encourage you to join our community and care for the well-being of our planet together. More information about our campaign can be found HERE .
Paczkomat® InPost - the most environmentally friendly form of delivery
With a campaign in the spirit of eco, we want to inform our customers that delivery to an InPost parcel machine is the most environmentally friendly choice. We have the evidence to prove it:
- Ordering a parcel to a Parcel Machine generates up to 75% less harmful carbon dioxide*. in terms of delivering it directly to your home.
- One InPost parcel machine saves 52 kg of CO2 per day - that means it "cleans" as much air per day as 9 trees do in a year !
- 350 kg! This is how much CO2 is saved by parcels delivered to a Paczkomat machine, assuming that the courier delivers up to 1,000 parcels a day to the machines. That's as if he was doing the job of converting CO2 into oxygen for as many as 60 trees!
- As many as 62% of customers pick up parcels from the Parcel Machine while running other errands, and in doing so reduce CO2.
- In addition, by ordering for an InPost parcel machine, we contribute to reducing noise and traffic jams on the streets!
The advantage of InPost vending machines is the increased efficiency of delivery compared to traditional courier delivery . During one working day, a courier delivers about 70-75 parcels to homes, visiting several dozen locations. By contrast, a courier delivering parcels to a Paczkomat InPost machine can deliver as many as 1,000 parcels during a working day, visiting an average of just four locations, while limiting harmful CO2 emissions.
InPost nationwide campaign
The "Eco-lovers choose Paczkomat InPost" campaign is promoted mainly in the digital channel and InPost's own channels, on citylights in shopping malls and on premium citylights in the largest cities in Poland Amongst others: Warsaw, Krakow, Łódź and Poznań. We want to reach consumers who go shopping frequently. The awareness that by changing their habits and the way they deliver their purchases, everyone can contribute to protecting our environment is extremely important. We have also ensured that our campaign is eco-friendly - we are using EKO Premium Citylights, a new solution from AMS which comprehensively takes care of the environment. Each advertising medium is placed exclusively in a bus shelter equipped with a green roof, which reduces the concentration of CO2 in the air. In addition, the citylights are equipped with energy-efficient LED lighting, and for each panel purchased, the company will plant one tree on behalf of the customer.
Zielona ESG strategy InPost
At InPost, we have been taking key actions in many important social and environmental areas for years. We are not starting from scratch: we have had the most sustainable business model for years, which is appreciated by both our customers and business partners. To set clear goals for the future we have developed a Sustainable Development Strategy for the InPost Group . Customers, the planet and broader partners are at the heart of our strategy, and the commitments we have made within this framework address the challenges and needs that are central to each of these stakeholder groups. We were one of the first in the Polish market to join the Science Based Targets (SBTi) initiative. We aim to be fully climate-neutral by 2040, and within five years we will have fully closed the raw material cycle in our own operations .
