Returnable-packaging exchange and ESG reporting automation

Challenge

The logistics division had to handle two trends at once: rising ESG reporting requirements and the need to cut operational losses on returnable packaging. Manual tracking wasn't enough, and the missing visibility made credible reporting impossible.

Rising ESG reporting and carbon-footprint requirements.
No visibility into packaging flow between parties.
Manual tracking exposed to errors.

What we built

We deployed a low-code/no-code solution that automates the entire returnable-packaging flow — digital sign-off on both sender and receiver sides, automatic data exchange between partners and central real-time tracking.

Data flows into ESG reporting without manual re-keying, so the sustainability team gets credible numbers on time and operations actually see where pallets and packaging are.
