ERIE, PA, UNITED STATES, June 18, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Logistics Plus, Inc. (LP), a global leader in transportation, logistics, and unique supply chain solutions, is proud to announce that it has received the official Ocean Integrity Plastic Neutrality Certification for 2023 – a fourth straight year. Last year, Logistics Plus reduced its plastic footprint by supporting the collection of over 77 thousand pounds of marine plastic and waste.

The Ocean Integrity Blue Ocean Plastic Neutral Program allows companies with sustainability initiatives to establish their plastic footprint and reduce it by supporting the collection of marine plastic and waste. One ton of plastic in the ocean can cause up to $33,000 worth of damage to the international economy.

"This impressive achievement is a testament to their commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship."

"For the past four years, Logistics Plus has partnered with Ocean Integrity to become plastic neutral through The Blue Ocean Program," said Yuriy Ostapyak, COO for Logistics Plus. "We are committed to preserving and protecting the oceans and their wildlife while supporting our global sustainability mission. Through this initiative, we have contributed to eliminating thousands of tons of single-use plastics from entering our environment each year."
