Apart from logistics operations which cross biodiversity-rich areas
by road in southern Africa and inland waterways in Europe, the
majority of our operations do not have a significant impact on
biodiversity-rich or protected habitats. We do not yet measure the
biodiversity impacts of our logistics operations but we comply with
all local environmental and related legislation. We also implement
our own internal systems of control, for example diverting the
transport of potentially dangerous materials around sensitive or
high-risk areas.
We are committed to promoting responsible integrated landuse
management and biodiversity conservation by applying a precautionary approach during all phases of our operations,
including business closures. We consider the impact of our
operations on local landscapes across the life span of a site, from
initial occupation to closure.
