Three levers for zero waste
- Reusable IoT devices: a closed-loop service model designed to extend device life and reduce reliance on single-use loggers.
- Real-time visibility: shipment data that can enable customers to identify and respond to temperature excursions while products are in transit.
- Reverse logistics: return, refurbishment and reuse of devices at the end of each deployment cycle.

Our climate approach
Controlant has a science-based target validated by the Science Based Targets initiative to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030, from a 2022 base year. We measure Scope 3 emissions across our value chain to identify our principal sources of indirect emissions.
- Monitoring and reporting greenhouse gas emissions
- Considering relevant sustainability matters in supplier management
- Applying circular-design principles and lifecycle assessment to our devices
- Using data and analytics to support customers in understanding supply chain performance
- Preparing for reporting under the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and the ESRS
In practice
In a 2024 case study with Vodafone, carried out by the independent climate consultancy Carbon Trust, avoided emissions were measured at approximately 53 kg CO₂e per box compared with the industry average. Across one year of deliveries that totals 16,700 tonnes CO₂e.

From 2025/26 we focus our voluntary reporting on the annual ESG report, Science Based Targets initiative and EcoVadis assessment. We no longer participate in the UN Global Compact or submit to CDP. Our Code of Conduct aligns with the ten principles of the UN Global Compact on human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption.
