Sustainability at Instabox

Sustainability has been at the core of our operations since day one, and we take pride in offering low-emitting transports as well as good working conditions. If we do something smart—we’ll encourage others to do the same. Similarly, if we see others doing something great—we’ll follow as fast as possible. When it comes to sustainability, it’s not about appearing to be the best but about doing what’s best for the planet and the people living here. That’s our commitment. 


Enviornment

We use tech to ensure that we plan the most efficient routes and achieve the most optimal fill rates for our vehicles and lockers, thereby reducing the traveled distance. We also provide our drivers with information about parking, upcoming stops, and loading procedures. These innovations contribute heavily to Instabox’s reduction of the environmental footprint, as well as increasing customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

We use only renewable diesel, so-called HVO100, or electricity in the absolute majority of our transports, from pick-up, through linehaul to the last mile. We are pushing ahead as much as we can with existing technology and available grid power, and we are making progress on electrifying our deliveries.


Instabox Locker Side

For us, it is about doing all we can today. To develop better and smarter solutions to problems. To push the limits of what’s possible and create sustainable transports with urgency. Our focus is on the absolute impact achieved, not on the relative performance.	
Instabox started with locker deliveries - a method that comes with several positive sustainability aspects. With locker deliveries, we can deliver 100 parcels in one single stop. This means:

- Fewer kilometers 
- Lower emissions
- Less congestion and noise


Instabee Partnership

Most of the people who deliver our parcels are directly employed by us. In this way, we get a better understanding of our value chain and can ensure a good work environment, terms and conditions.

In 2021 we created our own committee working with questions, initiatives, and projects within diversity and inclusion. The committee consists of some 25 employees who will bring awareness, focus, and attention to these topics throughout the company.
