Sustainable logistics solutions
Rich Content Section
With the largest logistics network in Switzerland, we make circular ideas happen. Together with your company, we look for tailor-made solutions and play an active role in shaping the circular economy in Switzerland. Furthermore, our entire logistics network is set to achieve net zero by 2040.
Achieving net zero with a circular economy
- We are enabling the circular economy in Switzerland and playing an active role in shaping it.
- As a partner, we support circular business models with the right logistics for every need.
The aim must be to make reusing a product in the cycle easier than disposal.

Sustainable logistics for your circular business model
Thanks to our universal service obligation, we deliver to almost every household in Switzerland on a daily basis. If logistics processes are designed to be circular with transportation by Swiss Post, this rarely results in extra trips and reduces CO2 emissions.
In addition, your energy balance will benefit directly from our investments in e-mobility: we already cover the last mile of almost 70% of all journeys with electric vehicles; this figure is set to reach 100% by 2030. This, in addition to your circular economy, will help you reduce emissions.
Our services
We show you how circular logistics works for your company
We work with you to develop tailor-made logistics solutions for your products. An example? Thanks to a partnership with Swiss Post, SodaBärTarget not accessible customers can simply deposit empty carbon dioxide cylinders in their private letter box. We collect them from there.
How circular logistics works
We support you as a partner in the development of new circular services or circular business models and develop tailor-made solutions together with you. Circular logistics ensures that products and materials in circular business models are efficiently returned, reused or reprocessed. This extends their service life sustainably.
We work with you to develop tailor-made solutions that are both sustainable and economically profitable. You receive a tailored overall service comprising shipping, delivery and additional modular options. Your customers manage the process independently and handle it directly at home.
Two-way logistics
Two-way logistics is a solution for sending and returning products. We collect the consignments directly from your customers on request. This solution is ideal for a range of circular applications, such as exchange, repair and reprocessing.
Second-hand logistics
For business customers who trade used goods (re-commerce), we offer shipping labels, collection from letter boxes, returns solutions and reusable packaging.
Reusable packaging
We offer reusable packaging such as the Dispobox or Kickbag. Multiple use spreads the procurement costs and environmental impact over several use cycles. After just a few cycles, they generate significantly reduced CO2 emissions and packaging waste. In addition to the direct positive environmental impact, low-emission packaging is also a growing requirement for end customers.
Return logistics
We collect consignments with the yellow collection bag directly from your customers, without a previous collection order (e.g. coffee capsules). This cost-effective and particularly convenient solution increases consumer satisfaction and motivates them to return consignments. We hold the collected goods centrally for you or deliver them directly to you or your processing partner.
