48Forty Solutions, the largest pallet management services company in North America, recognized the need to be transparent about their environmental impacts. With increasing demands from the public and investors for companies to disclose their environmental footprint, 48Forty decided to take a proactive approach. They wanted to start measuring and reducing their carbon footprint, not only to meet these demands but also to contribute to the fight against climate change. However, they faced the challenge of finding a suitable partner to help them manage their carbon data effectively and efficiently, especially given that regulations around this are relatively new in the U.S.
48Forty chose to partner with Greenly, a company founded in the EU, specifically France, where regulations around managing carbon data are more established. Greenly's experience in a highly regulated jurisdiction was a key factor in 48Forty's decision, as they wanted to work with a partner that understood what it takes to be successful in this area. Additionally, 48Forty was impressed with Greenly's platform, which presents carbon accounting in a simple, relatable way through infographics. This approach aligns with 48Forty's goal of reducing their carbon footprint in an effective and efficient manner. Furthermore, 48Forty is focusing on optimizing logistics and managing different elements of their customer's packaging in the supply chain to make these materials reusable for a longer lifespan, thereby reducing carbon emissions.
