In order to get even more containers off the road and transport them by rail in a more environmentally friendly way, we want to offer our customers a further approach: With every 100. container transported by rail on our core routes, we protect one m2 of rainforest and plant a new tree.
Every month, we evaluate the boxes transported on our rail routes and donate one box for every 100 boxes transported. Box a tree. Our new sustainability brand stands for our guiding principle: green, greener, Zippel green.
