Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR) at leogistics
Social Responsibility - a matter close to ourheart.
Getting Active Together
CSR in the sense of sustainable business and development as well as social responsibility has long since ceased to be a rarity in companies. This includes social, ecological and economic aspects. So it is also a matter of course for leogistics GmbH to promote and further develop these topics.
Sustainable business means change.
As an employing organization, we want to create a prejudice-free working climate free of discrimination and safe working conditions for all employees. In addition, we also want to make a contribution to society outside our business environment and support people who need help. Finally, climate protection is also becoming an increasingly important issue for which we want to take greater responsibility.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
Climate change is the responsibility of us all.
As stipulated in the Paris Climate Agreement, companies must become climate-neutral by 2050. In close cooperation with our parent company Materna, we want to have already achieved significant improvements before then. Because it is not only important for us as a company to position ourselves more sustainably; our customers are also attaching increasing importance to the issue.Sustainable business has long since ceased to be a “nice-to-have,” but a necessity that we are happy to meet as a responsible company. For many years, leogistics GmbH has also been involved in various social projects. This allows us to use our economic success to help other social groups in various areas such as equality, mass sports and fundraising.

Social Responsibility
leo for PAUL
With leo for PAUL, we support a donation initiative for drinking water treatment in crisis regions. PAUL (Portable Aqua Unit for Lifesaving) is a portable water filter unit and was developed by the Department of Urban Water Management in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Kassel. The blue water backpack is used in emergency and disaster situations, where it treats 1,200 liters of water per day: without energy, chemicals, maintenance or trained personnel. Around 400 people can help themselves with it.

Sport Sponsoring: leogistics is committed to junior and amateur sports
Around 200 leogistics colleagues are spread across Germany. What unites us are values such as passion, emotion, enthusiasm for technology and team spirit. Another thing we have in common is that we have to look after young talent in the long term. That’s why supporting youth teams has been part of our corporate culture for years. With this in mind, we support local youth and leisure sports in the regions of our five locations, for example as a shirt and tournament sponsor.

Climate Neutrality
Climate Neutrality by 2025 at leogistics
The goal of leogistics GmbH is to be climate-neutral by 2025 at the latest. To achieve this, we rely on a mix of the greatest possible reduction of CO₂ emissions and CO₂ compensation where necessary.
Unsere Maßnahmen
Conversion to Green Electricity at Our Offices
Successive conversion of the company car fleet
Job bike offer for employees
Continuous analysis of our CO emissions as a company
Climate neutral websites
The Internet requires vast amounts of energy, and every mouse click causes CO₂ emissions. That’s why we’re working with ClimatePartner to make our websites www.leogistics.com and www.myleodsc.com climate-neutral. ClimatePartner offers companies solutions for climate protection by providing support in calculating and reducing CO₂ emissions, offsetting these through climate protection projects, and implementing climate protection strategies. In this way, companies and products can achieve their goal of becoming climate neutral.
