Sustainable logistics and environmental sustainability in general are becoming more and more requested by the market, even in the temperature-controlled services sector.
Natural products and logistic sustainability
Natural products require specific logistics services, preferably able to maintain controlled temperatures during transport.
The carriers, moreover, to ensure that the temperature is constant throughout the Supply Chain, from the producer to the consumer, must identify warehouses with controlled-temperature cells for stops and sorting.
Aervaro is part of a network of transporters that rely on its warehouse to obtain this service and be able to maintain a controlled temperature commitment with its customers.
The choice to collaborate with transporters that provide specialized services in the field of temperature controlled and Cool Pharma goes in the direction of giving the best experience to its customers, who often operate in the production and sale of natural products, such as integrators natural and nutraceuticals.
Consistent with this choice, Aervaro has selected a number of partners that, in addition to having the necessary technologies for conservation and transport in compliance with the law, have adopted a strategy of great attention to the environment by introducing electric and ecological vehicles within their own fleet.
Opportunities for sustainable logistics
The last edition of E-mob, the Conference on Electric Mobility, promoted to promote the electric culture in the world of transport and the spread of electric vehicles in all its forms has recently ended: from public transport to the shared one ( sharing) up to the transport of goods, especially that of the last mile in urban centers.
100% electric trucks: no environmental impact and the possibility of reaching the historic centers
Think for example of a herbalist or a pharmacy in the city center. These realities can be served by electric, ecological, and temperature-controlled carriers.
More and more companies value “green” initiatives and thanks to electric fleets it is possible to offer non-polluting transport services.
Thanks to the latest technologies, moreover, the vehicles are equipped with very solid and efficient engines, with long-lasting batteries.
Companies in the electric mobility sector – and obviously all companies that need the freight transport service – have a further opportunity to deliver their vehicles and / or materials with zero-emission trucks, further reducing the environmental impact.
In a difficult market time where marketing at all levels is increasingly important, logistics services with low environmental impact should be highly appreciated by companies.
Truck sharing: also logistics services in the sharing economy
The sharing philosophy in the transport sector is becoming increasingly popular, even in the case of heavy and bulky shipments or in those that require special temperature maintenance services.
Various startups are born that offer services of this type.
The goal of these startups is to make transport more efficient: according to market data, in fact, 38% of heavy vehicles travel empty and 62% travel with half load.
These startups, oriented to truck sharing, work towards cost cutting, as well as reducing environmental impact, and this is possible by sharing the cargo space of the trucks.
There are new portals that allow the customer who has to transport goods to select the type of transport and load desired, and return the final quote based on a selection of offers already present in the database.
The quote remains unchanged for 48 hours and at this juncture the company identifies and engages the most suitable partner.
