Sustainability at Aramex Australia
Aramex Australia is building a sustainability approach that reflects how we actually operate a franchisee-driven courier network with a clear opportunity to reduce cost and environmental impact at the same time.
Our sites
We have solar installed at our Sydney and Brisbane distribution centres, and we're looking to expand our use of solar generation across our network. Our Brisbane facility holds ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) and ISO 45001 (Health & Safety) certification. Across our distribution centres, we're progressively replacing LPG and diesel forklifts with electric alternatives and reviewing energy use at our largest sites to cut both cost and consumption.
Our Fleet
Our Australian network runs on franchisee-owned vehicles, which gives us a real lever for lowering emissions as electric vans become commercially viable for last-mile delivery. We're currently researching EV and financing options to make the switch stack up economically.
Waste
We're reviewing how waste is managed across our network, improving how we separate and track recyclable materials, and working with our waste partners to reduce what goes to landfill.
Our people and supply chain
Aramex's Modern Slavery Statement covers our operations, setting out how we identify and manage the risk of modern slavery across our business and supply chain.
Reporting
Aramex Australia is preparing for mandatory climate-related financial disclosure under Australia's new sustainability reporting standards (ASRS). We're currently building a full emissions baseline across our operations, so that the commitments we make are backed by real data and a credible plan to deliver them.
