Logistics Sustainability Through Operational Innovation
Logistics Sustainability becomes especially meaningful when sustainability meets real operational challenges.
DSV is a global transport and logistics company operating across more than 90 countries. Moreover, the company has around 150,000 employees and more than 3,000 offices and logistics facilities worldwide.
Therefore, the scale of DSV’s operations also creates opportunities to rethink how materials are used throughout the logistics process.
For PSJKM, this created an opportunity to explore a simple question with DSV: What else can operational waste become?
When Logistics Moves, Materials Move Too
Every logistics operation requires materials for protection, securing, handling, and packaging.
However, these materials eventually reach the end of their original purpose. Therefore, some operational materials may have potential for a second life.
In August 2026, PSJKM and DSV began exploring this possibility together.
Instead of starting with a fixed product, the teams started with actual operational materials and needs. Consequently, DSV employees shared their experiences and ideas from the workplace.
From Operational Materials to New Ideas
The collaboration generated more than 20 ideas for potential applications.
For example, the teams explored recovered materials such as sling wrap and plastic straps. From there, PSJKM helped translate operational materials into possible everyday products.
These concepts included lunch bags, card holders, files, tote bags, paper trays, hand pouches, and pallet covers.
Furthermore, each concept started from a practical question: Could this material serve another useful purpose?
This approach makes Logistics Sustainability more practical. Instead of viewing waste only as something to remove, teams can also consider its remaining value.
Operation Waste to Possibility
This collaboration also demonstrates how Logistics Sustainability can involve employees directly.
DSV employees brought their operational knowledge and real workplace needs. Meanwhile, PSJKM contributed upcycling expertise, sewing capabilities, and product development support.
Together, both teams explored possibilities that connect circular thinking with everyday operations.
Most importantly, this is not simply about making products from waste. Instead, it is about changing how we look at materials after their first use.
For PSJKM, the journey with DSV continues to open new possibilities for circular innovation and community-based production.
We sincerely thank DSV and the team for their openness, ideas, and continued collaboration.
And as we move forward, we look forward to discovering what other operational materials can become.
