Sustainability
Sustainability is important for Alligo AB and we are constantly working to be sustainable within our processes. That is why we want suppliers to work to minimize waste, which can be done, among other things, by reducing the amount of packaging, filling materials, and consolidating shipments to us
The goal is to be able to reuse or sort 95% of all packaging and filling material in our central warehouses.
General requirements for sustainability
Cellulose in cardboard and corrugated packaging must be completely based on unbleached pulp, pulp bleached without chlorine gas or hypochlorite and / or recycled pulp
Plastic in the packaging should not contain PVC
Plastic packaging must be marked in accordance with the standard DIN 6120 with the associated symbol, depending on the choice of material
Freight
The supplier must follow the instructions that are first and foremost stated in the contract, and secondly the order. Suppliers may not use TOOLS accounts for recipient freight with TOOLS carriers on their own initiative. In cases where deliveries take place on the supplier's freight agreement, the freight cost shall be invoiced with the goods and clearly stated on the goods invoice, unless the freight is free or included in the price.
Pallets
Load carriers in form of approved EUR pallets are transferred to ALLIGO's pallet account for deliveries to our central warehouse.
