Acting sustainably, protecting valuables – an apparent contradiction?
For many companies, the idea of CO₂-reduced transport raises the concern that savings in emissions could come at the expense of security or efficiency. Every decision is critical, especially when it comes to transporting valuables such as cash, precious metals or confidential documents. Compromised transport can not only result in financial losses, but also damage the trust of your business partners.
At Helveticor, we demonstrate that sustainability and security are not mutually exclusive. Through careful planning, modern technologies and optimised fleet processes, both goals can be achieved at the same time. Environmental responsibility and the highest security standards are equally important to us, and both are consistently implemented in every order.
What are the risks associated with conventional transport methods?
Many traditional transport solutions focus on speed and cost optimisation without taking the carbon footprint into account. Not only can this be problematic for the environment, it can also have a negative impact on your company’s sustainability profile. At the same time, there is a risk that vehicles won’t meet all safety requirements, which can lead to delays or losses.
Companies looking for ESG-compliant partners need to ensure that environmental as well as social and governance aspects are taken into account. For us, this includes not only the use of sustainable fuels and modern vehicle technology, but also the long-term development and training of our employees.
Reducing CO₂ without compromise – myth or reality?
Our transport operations are specifically planned to reduce CO₂ emissions. By switching our entire vehicle fleet to HVO100 diesel, we have been able to reduce the CO₂ emissions of our delivery vehicles by up to 30%. HVO100 is a sustainable fuel made from renewable raw materials, virtually free of pollutants and yet fully efficient.
Each route is analysed in advance to find the perfect balance between energy efficiency, security and delivery speed. Thanks to intelligent route planning, we avoid empty runs and reduce emissions without compromising the smooth running of your transport operations. In this way, our customers can rest assured that their valuables are not only protected, but also transported in an environmentally responsible manner.
ESG verified: trust instead of empty promises
At Helveticor, we don’t just pay lip service to sustainability. Our carbon footprint and strategy for reducing emissions are reviewed annually and certified with the Silver Certificate by Swiss Climate. This quality seal confirms that our measures are independently validated, transparently documented and demonstrably effective.
In addition, we take a holistic approach to ESG principles: environmentally friendly means of transport, fair and targeted employee training and cross-generational corporate management. Through these measures, we meet the increasing demands of our customers for sustainable high-security logistics and demonstrate that responsibility and operational efficiency go hand in hand.
From the road to the forest: making sustainability visible
For us, sustainability doesn’t end on the road. We are actively involved in reforestation projects and long-term forest management in Switzerland. This means that over 7279 hectares of forest are managed ecologically, CO₂ is captured and regional value chains are supported.
We also use locally produced energy from sustainable forestry and consistently focus on energy efficiency in our operational buildings, for example through LED lighting and modern heating systems. In this way, we combine global climate responsibility with immediate regional benefits.
Transparency that really makes a difference
A key aspect of sustainability is measurable and traceable transparency. Helveticor fully records Scope 3 emissions, i.e. indirect emissions along the supply chain. Our certified CO₂ reporting covers all modes of transport – road, rail, air and sea.
This allows companies to make informed decisions, make optimisations and achieve their ESG goals without compromising on security or efficiency. Sustainability is therefore not only visible at Helveticor, but actively integrated into operational planning.
Your valuables, our green standard
CO₂-reduced transport does not have to mean compromising on security or efficiency. We combine modern technologies, sustainable fuels, certified climate strategies and regional responsibility to ensure safe and environmentally friendly transport.
If you want to protect your valuables, minimise risks and at the same time protect the environment, Helveticor is a partner that makes sustainability measurable and integrates it into every transport operation. Your investments are not only escorted securely, but also sustainably – from collection to delivery.
