SEAFORD, DE, June 16, 2023 – Trinity Logistics, a leading 3PL provider of transportation and logistics solutions, is proud to share its selection as a Green Supply Chain Partner of 2023 by Inbound Logistics. This recognition showcases Trinity’s commitment to sustainability and its efforts to reduce its environmental impact. 

“We’re honored to be recognized by Inbound Logistics for our commitment to sustainability,” said Sarah Ruffcorn, President of Trinity Logistics. “We believe that improving our sustainability is the right thing to do, so we’re always looking for ways to reduce our environmental impact in all aspects of our business.”

Each year, Inbound Logistics editors select 75 companies that go above and beyond to prioritize green initiatives and help global supply chains become more sustainable. Inbound Logistics recognizes these companies as dedicated to developing and implementing best practices to leave a positive footprint on the world. 

Trinity has a long history of sustainability initiatives. In 2008, the company became a member of EPA’s SmartWay Transport Partnership, a voluntary program that helps companies reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution from freight transportation. Trinity has also been a member of the American Chemistry Council’s Responsible CareⓇ program since 2009. Responsible CareⓇ is a global initiative that promotes the responsible management of chemicals and their safe use. The program also helps companies improve their environmental performance in areas such as pollution prevention, employee health and safety, and security. 

Just last year, Trinity became a CarbonfreeⓇ Partner with CarbonFund, a non-profit that works with its partners to help them become “carbon-neutral” by donating funds to offset their emissions. This year, Trinity expanded its efforts to not only offset the corporate location in Delaware but included the Iowa and Florida offices as well. This year, the company offset 90 tonnes of carbon emissions by donating to the N20 Abatement Project. 

Trinity is proud to be named a leader in the green supply chain space and remains committed to making a positive impact on the environment in all ways possible. 

Inbound Logistics has named Trinity Logistics as a Green Supply Chain Partner of 2022.  

Inbound Logistics selected 75 honorees that “walk the walk” when it comes to commitment to supply chain sustainability and given the global environment this year, Trinity Logistics is very honored to have been selected.

Sustainability is something Trinity has always taken very seriously. Since 2008, Trinity Logistics has participated in the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) SmartWay Program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution that is caused by freight transportation. Trinity has also been partners with American Chemistry Council’s Responsible Care since 2009, which involves staying committed to improving company performance through community awareness, security, distribution, and pollution prevention. 

With one of Trinity’s Guiding Values being Continuous Improvement, the company knows there is always room for improvement, even in sustainability efforts. That’s why Trinity recently become a Carbonfree Partner with Carbon Fund. 

The Carbonfund.org Foundation is a non-profit that works with its partners to help them become “carbon-neutral” by donating funds to offset their emissions. Donated funds go toward third-party validated projects that comply with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. With the help of Carbonfund.org, Trinity was able to calculate electricity usage in its corporate Delaware location and donate funds to the Carbonfund.org Foundation to offset the company’s own emissions by planting trees and funds sent to the Texas Capricorn Ridge Wind Project. Thanks to the Carbonfund.org Foundation, Trinity was able to offset 143 tonnes of carbon emissions.

Additionally, Trinity is working with the EPA and Carbonfund.org Foundation to create a calculated way that our shipper customers can donate to offset their shipment’s emissions and make a difference as well. 

“As many companies shift focus to clean energy and reducing carbon footprints, Trinity is excited for our new partnership with the Carbonfund.org Foundation and our continued partnerships with American Chemistry Council’s Responsible Care Management System and EPA’s SmartWay Program to support our customer efforts in going green,” says Kristin Deno, Director of Operational Risk at Trinity.

Trinity is grateful to be recognized for its continued sustainability efforts. Trinity stays determined to find and implement impactful ways to help combat climate change and hopefully soon, can offer more ways for shipper customers to make a direct impact too.
