One step ahead in sustainability

As a responsible last mile delivery and logistics player, Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) matters are high priority.

Partnering for a Greener Future

Together, GDEX and BLH Ecoenergy are driving towards a cleaner and greener Bentong. In August 2024, both parties celebrated their collaboration with the official launch of an electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) at Genting Permai, which was officiated by Yang Dipertua of Bentong Municipal Council, Yang Hormat Dato’ Rose Samsul bin Abdul Razak.

GDEX Beach Cleanup

Kudos to the HQ and Klang Valley Region teams for volunteering to clean up Bagan Lalang Beach in Sepang, Selangor, this morning

We commend your efforts in collecting 400.2 kg of trash, comprising paper, plastic, agricultural waste, and 821 pieces of cigarette butts along the beach.
Cigarette butts are the most littered item in the world, made from non-biodegradeable plastic and contains toxic chemicals, which is especially harmful to aquatic animals.

Thank you Majlis Perbandaran Sepang for the cooperation and support to make this Corporate Social Responsibility project a success.

Brighter Future With Renewable Energy

In April 2022, installation of a rooftop solar PV system at our headquarters in Petaling Jaya, Selangor was completed. 

With this initiative, 15% of GDEX Headquarters’ monthly energy consumption is now powered by solar.

Charging Towards a Cleaner Future

In November 2021, GDEX took delivery of a new fleet of all-electric motorcycles, marking a new chapter in sustainability. 

These cleaner, quieter vehicles will:

  • Cover urban locations in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor 
  • Serve as a study for usage of electric bicycles and tricycles for smaller areas like neighbourhoods

Delivering a Greener Future

We want the future generations to enjoy the abundance of natural resources that our country is blessed with. In April 2019, 30 GDEXians participated in the planting of mangrove saplings in Taman Alam forest reserve, Kuala Selangor.

Environmental Policy

We are committed to complying with legal and other requirements on environmental protection, preventing pollution to the environment, continually improving our environmental performance and upgrading our Environmental Management System.

Packing for an Environmental-Friendly Future

Statistics estimate that the global e-commerce industry used about 2.1 billion pounds of plastic packaging in 2019. It’s projected to grow to an estimated 4.5 billion pounds by 2025.

What is sustainable packaging?2022-11-11T15:51:46+08:00
  • Protective material
  • Made from responsibly sourced materials
  • Made with recycled content
  • Recyclable
How did we improve our packaging?2022-12-14T18:25:11+08:00

By combining materials science and manufacturing partnerships, we are able to apply sustainable change across the packaging supply chain.

How did we reduce/eliminate packaging?2022-11-23T10:46:02+08:00

In 2022, we used technology to replace non-recyclable insulation in our newly-launched chilled and frozen delivery service. This has eliminated the annual use of tons of non-recyclable mixed plastic previously needed to deliver frozen groceries.

What are the materials used in our packaging?2022-12-14T18:25:42+08:00

Our carton boxes are made of one of the most recycled materials — corrugated cardboard. In 2018, 96% of corrugated products were recycled.
