Peterson is more than logistics
Sustainability
Supply chain partner for sustainable progress
At Peterson, sustainability is part of how we work. As a supply chain partner, we take responsibility for making logistics more efficient, transparent and future-proof.
In the Netherlands we already run several practical initiatives and we’re developing more. These projects sit alongside group-wide programmes so our local actions are aligned with a clear global ambition.
The result: measurable steps that improve operations today and guide longer-term choices tomorrow.
Our initiatives in the Netherlands
Data that makes sustainability practical
Sustainability becomes practical when insight is available in daily operations. With the Peterson Client Portal, we combine logistics, inspection and emissions data into one clear, digital overview.
Clients have 24/7 real-time insight into shipments, vessels and CO₂ footprints, supporting informed decisions on performance and compliance.
Green Award partnership
Peterson is an official Green Award inland shipping incentive provider.
This partnership supports higher environmental and safety standards in inland shipping and encourages sustainable investments throughout the chain.
Verified emissions for inland shipping
Our method for calculating inland-shipping emissions has been independently verified and meets ISO 14064-3 standards. That gives clients reliable figures to measure progress and plan reductions, with real data, not estimates.
Global ambition
Accountability and transparency
Sustainability report
Our sustainability report shows how ambition becomes action across the Peterson and Control Union Group.
We report annually in line with GRI standards, giving a clear view of performance and targets across environment, people & society, and governance. The report helps us make fact-based decisions and continuous improvements.
Progress you can track
Net zero by 2040
The group’s long-term ambition is net zero emissions across all operations by 2040. That ambition steers investment and partnerships.
Progress is measured step by step and published so results are verifiable and transparent.

Dare to care: our four pillars
Our sustainability work rests on four pillars: environment, people, society and governance. We build long-term client relationships, invest in the development and well-being of our people, reduce resource use where we can, and support local communities through targeted initiatives.
More than logistics, and more to come
These initiatives are examples of how Peterson turns sustainability into practice: operational improvements, digital tools and verified data that support real progress. With over 100 years of experience we combine hands-on logistics with insight and accountability.
Sustainability is a continuous journey. We make progress step by step, together with clients, partners and stakeholders.
