Kaufland received a sustainability certificate from CHEP Romania for the performance achieved at the operational level in 2023. According to the certificate, in 2023, Kaufland Romania reduced its carbon footprint by 1,457 tons, avoided the production of over 117,000 kg of operational waste and saved approximately 1,250,000 dm³ of wood resources.

“The performances were possible with the help of CHEP services, which offer for rent blue pallets intended for the transport of products, in the pooling system built according to the principles of the circular economy. The use of CHEP blue pallets instead of classic white pallets translates into an optimization of resource consumption and a reduction of the degree of pollution and the amount of waste, out of concern for the environment,” according to Kaufland representatives.

Kaufland constantly invests in actions to protect the environment and is committed to supporting and contributing to the achievement of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) launched by the United Nations (UN), which include Earth Life, Climate Action and Responsible Consumption and Production.
