Quality and environmental policy

Our company innovates and seeks solutions to improve the quality our service delivery, and strives to minimise the use of energy and natural resources, work to raise the awareness on the part of employees concerning environmental issues, take measures for the prevention of emissions causing pollution and encourage a safer and more responsible use of natural resources, and improve waste management. cargoGO not only creates a safe working environment, but also helps employees to understand their own responsibility when implementing sustainability ideas.
Modern fleet
Traditionally, the transport sector’s activities release large amounts of CO2 into the environment, and cargoGO is taking all reasonable measures to minimise the discharge of pollutants into the environment. When expanding our fleet and acquiring new vehicles, the focus is made on cost-efficiency and environmental impact. cargoGO’s fleet consists of trucks that are no more than 2 years old and from manufacturers that guarantee the highest quality: DAF, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Scania, MAN, complying with the Euro 6 Emission Standard.
Implementing a culture of eco-management
The organisation of our company promotes a culture of safe, cost-effective and environmentally-friendly driving. Our drivers are offered regular training on eco-management issues. This is an environmentally-friendly and cost-effective driving style, which justifies sustainability commitments for drivers to customers, partners and themselves, while discharging far less harmful substances into the environment.
cargoGO’s Driver Training Centre conducts periodic knowledge tests for both new recruits and existing drivers. The training takes place in a dedicated classroom with virtual stands, allowing us to use a lot of visual and virtual material during sessions. The training is delivered by experienced professionals with an in-depth knowledge of driving and technical characteristics of vehicles, interest in innovation, and the ability to improve their knowledge by means of internal and external training sessions.
To sum up, Osvaldas Švitra, CEO of cargoGO, comments that in cooperation with customers, partners and suppliers, the company is committed to sustainability, and strives for a mutually beneficial cooperation, not only for itself and its customers, but also for the community at large. Following market trends, we can see that commitments such as these will be even more important in the future, and are already working hard to minimise the footprint on nature of our activities. The growing confidence our customers have shown in in shows that the path we have chosen is the correct and proper one and responds to their needs.
