We need to bring down emissions from transport in Finland – and Matkahuolto has a big role to play in it
Sustainability is at the core of Matkahuolto’s operations. Sustainability cuts across our entire organisation and is seamlessly integrated into our everyday practices. Our work is guided by our sustainability programme established in 2020.
We promote sustainable parcel and travel services and develop our sustainability work in close cooperation with our employees and partners. The focus of our parcel services is on seamless cooperation with our nationwide partner network and on our environmentally friendly transport solutions. Together with transport operators, we have been promoting public transport for 90 years.
Our goal is to halve emissions from all our operations and be carbon neutral by 2030.
