Emons has always shown responsibility for the environment. Transportation is our main starting point. With our own container trains, we transfer transport from road to rail.

In addition, life-saving assistance systems are a matter of course for us.

New facilities for environmental protection and sustainable jobs
Our new plants are not only characterized by the latest standards from the outside world. We also work behind the scenes with modern and sustainable technologies such as photovoltaics, heat pumps, district heating, electric vehicles and safety systems to ensure sustainability and safety for our employees.

Strategic location selection
Our locations are strategically selected to offer maximum efficiency and minimal environmental impact. We work closely with partners who share our values and promote short distances to the most important economic centers. Technology and Innovation
Emons uses cutting-edge technologies to conserve resources and increase efficiency. Driver training, environmental awareness courses and continuing education help to strengthen the competence of our teams and underline our commitment to quality and the environment.

The focus is on our employees. We promote a safe and respectful work environment and place great value on ethical action. Initiatives such as JobRad and digital tools support both the environment and the wellbeing of our teams.

Social responsibility is an integral part of our identity.
As a leading company in the logistics sector, we face not only economic but also social obligations. For this reason, we have once again decided this year to look beyond the limits of our core business and take on social responsibility. Because we are convinced that companies can and should make a positive contribution to society.
