Vehicle fleet management
KONE aims to operate an environmentally sustainable, safe, and cost-effective vehicle fleet. This is achieved through a globally aligned vehicle fleet policy and fleet management solutions. KONE’s vehicle fleet development program aims to reduce the average fuel consumption and CO2 emissions per vehicle by 5% year on year between 2010 and 2013. |

Logistics
Eco-efficiency in logistics is achieved by optimising the distribution network, maximising the use of environmentally efficient modes of transport, optimising delivery loads to maximise the use of space, and centralising volumes at strategic suppliers to reduce transport distances. In addition KONE uses advanced, ISO 14000-certified logistics service providers who follow environmentally friendly principles of operation. |

Waste management
KONE aims to reduce waste in its manufacturing and offices, through reduction at the source, reuse and recycling, or by sending waste for incineration. Only 2% of the waste generated by KONE’s global supply line is sent to landfill – the remaining 98% is recycled or sent for incineration. |
