ERIE, PA, April 22, 2021 – Logistics Plus Inc., a leading worldwide provider of transportation, logistics, and supply chain solutions, is proud to announce that it is the first corporate sponsor to enroll in the Restoring Integrity To The Oceans (RIO) Plastic Neutrality Program.
The RIO Plastic Neutral Program provides companies the opportunity to establish their plastic footprint and reduce it by joining RIO to collect marine plastic and waste. Logistics Plus received Plastic Neutrality Certification for offsetting 19 tonnes of plastic use in 2020.
“Ocean plastic pollution is a global problem,” said Yuriy Ostapyak, COO for Logistics Plus. “Through our partnership with RIO, we are a leading logistics provider that not only helps them with their supply chain, but we’re also leading by example by becoming one of the first plastic neutral companies in the world. We plan to continue participating every year.”
Last month Logistics Plus purchased 1,200 recycled pallets from RIO made from 13,200 pounds of plastic waste. Logistics Plus formally partnered with RIO in February 2020 to support its ongoing ocean cleanup initiatives.
