Sustainability in Capital Goods Wholesale
When it comes to the procurement of capital goods, wholesalers play a key role in driving change in a wide range of industries and sectors. It is often up to wholesalers to control selection and supply and to offer systems, machines and devices that meet sustainability requirements.
This includes resource-saving production, low energy consumption in use, the use of recycled materials that enable the transition to a circular economy, and compliance with applicable environmental and social standards along the supply and production chains. Whether solar or wind turbines, storage or network components, electric vehicles, sorting and recycling machines: capital goods are the pieces of the puzzle in the transition from the linear, fossil-fuel age to a climate-neutral circular economy.

The industry can drive transformation in its own processes. This ranges from the optimization of business processes to corporate responsibility for the product range, production, employees and suppliers. Another lever is shortening transport chains: Shorter routes reduce emissions and energy consumption, promote regionality and innovative logistics and mobility solutions in order to deliver to customers in a way that saves emissions.
The industry includes, for example, the wholesale of information and communication technology devices, machines, equipment and accessories.
