Schaeffler has announced its delivery notes will be going paperless, with all LuK, INA and FAG part shipments to customers set to include digital documentation by October 1st.
The move, part of an ongoing global pivot away from physical documentation by the company, will save over 30 trees per year in the UK alone. All customers have been emailed about the shift to digital.
Matthew Selby, Sales and Marketing Director at Schaeffler Automotive Aftermarket (UK), said: “Moving to digital delivery notes is the right move for our customers, and for the environment.:
“At Schaeffler, we are more than aware of the need to cut down on unnecessary waste. Apart from the amount of paper used for the delivery notes, which are looked at once and discarded, there is also the issue of the ink and toner used, and the energy expended powering printing machinery. By going digital, we are reducing energy usage, which is simply better for the environment.”
The move is part of the motion technology company’s global initiative towards improving sustainability and reducing its carbon footprint. Recently, the REPXPERT bonus points loyalty scheme went fully digital too in a move providing instant access to technical information, offers and more via the OneCode on Schaeffler product boxes.
