Sustainability challenges are no longer the sole responsibility of dedicated ESG or sustainability teams. Waste reduction, circular economy initiatives, supply chain traceability, ESG reporting, and growing expectations from customers and investors require companies to demonstrate tangible results across their value chain.

In this context, logistics has an important role to play. At Paxon, we support our customers in integrating their ESG objectives into day-to-day operations through three key levers: resource sharing and optimization, the development of circular solutions, and the provision of data to help monitor environmental and social performance.

Waste and packaging management provide a tangible example of this contribution. In 2025, 26,544 tonnes of waste were managed by Paxon, with nearly 63% recycled or reused. Among the main waste streams handled, 95.7% of paper and cardboard and 97.3% of wood were directed to appropriate recovery and recycling channels. These results illustrate the solutions implemented to support our customers' circular economy initiatives and resource recovery efforts.

Packaging is another important area of action. In 2025, 54% of the packaging materials used by Paxon met our responsible sourcing criteria, rising to 83% for paper and cardboard. Working closely with our customers, we develop solutions tailored to their needs, including packaging optimization, the use of recyclable or reusable materials, and initiatives aimed at reducing resource consumption.

Beyond operational solutions, successful ESG strategies rely on the ability to measure progress. This is why we support our customers with operational traceability and the provision of relevant indicators that can contribute to ESG reporting and stakeholder engagement.

Today, logistics is about more than moving and storing products. When supported by appropriate solutions, reliable data, and a continuous improvement approach, it can contribute to more sustainable business performance. At Paxon, we leverage our expertise to help customers combine operational efficiency, circular economy principles, and long-term value creation.
