Energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions
Esprinet's activity is part of the articulated supply chain resulting in an environmental impact both upstream and downstream of its organisation.
The Esprinet Group decided to comprehensively measure the environmental impact of its entire supply chain for the year 2022 as well, according to the methods in line with theof the "GHG Protocol" (Greenhouse Gas Protocol).
Together with electricity, natural gas, diesel and petrol are three different energy sources used by the Group in its facilities.
Integrated Supply Chain
Esprinet activities are included within an articulated Supply Chain.
Transport emissions
Esprinet activities resorts to two types of transportation: direct deliveries, which concern good transportation from the Group’s warehouses to customers, with delivery vehicles and without intermediaries, and indirect deliveries, through main multinational couriers vehicles, with a stop at logistics hubs.
Group’s Supply Chain
The Esprinet Group deals with “business-to-business” technology distribution, acting as wholesale distributor of technological products along the IT supply chain.
Raw materials and Waste
The raw materials contributed by the Esprinet Group to the supply chain consist primarily of paper, cardboard, plastic, wood and iron tips used for packaging products.
With the desire to make less and less of an impact on the environment, the Esprinet Group activated the Packaging Sustainability Programme, which envisages the use of innovative and sustainable materials in the goods packaging process with the aim of respecting the environment and eliminating the use of virgin plastic material used in warehouses from its packaging.
The waste that the Esprinet Group must dispose of derives mostly from the packaging used to transport products from the manufacturing site to the warehouses of the Group and mainly consists of paper, cardboard, plastic, wooden pallets and iron.
