Graphic Packaging pilots low-emission trucking under logistics initiative

Graphic Packaging has launched a transportation and logistics initiative under its Better, Every Day sustainability strategy, aiming to cut emissions through carrier selection, transport mode shifts, alternative fuels and network optimisation. Pilots include eight renewable natural gas trucks on the Chicago-Kalamazoo corridor in the US and electric trucks in Portland, Oregon and in the UK East Midlands to North East corridor.

Why this mattersFibre packaging producers face rising scrutiny of scope 3 transport emissions, and carrier and fuel pilots test options other converters may later adopt.

• Eight renewable natural gas trucks deployed on the Chicago-Kalamazoo corridor in the US.
• Two electric trucks piloted on short-haul routes in Portland.
• Two electric heavy goods vehicles piloted between the East Midlands and North East in the UK.
• Initiative targets carrier selection, transport mode shifts, alternative fuels and network optimisation.
• Aims to reduce empty miles and increase trailer utilisation.
• Initiative sits under Graphic Packaging's Better, Every Day sustainability strategy.
