DB Schenker (Thai) and JASPAL Group Partner to Advance Sustainable Logistics with Electric Trucks, Driving Waste Reduction and Reinforcing Their Commitment to Sustainability
JASPAL GROUP (Jaspal Public Company Limited), a leading fashion and lifestyle business in the ASEAN region, is making tangible progress towards sustainable development by transforming its logistics operations to utilize clean energy.
The company has introduced electric trucks (EV trucks) for the transport of freight and is implementing waste reduction measures throughout its operations, ensuring a balance between business growth and environmental responsibility.
Mr. Charan Singhsachathet, Chief Executive Officer of JASPAL GROUP, reaffirmed the company’s commitment to driving the fashion industry forward with sustainability at its core. “We prioritize the use of clean energy in logistics and aim to reduce waste at every step. This not only enhances cost efficiency and operational effectiveness but also generates shared value for society and the environment. Our approach embodies The Power of Sustainability principle that drives continuous change at JASPAL GROUP,” he said.
Mr. Charan said leadership in the fashion industry extends beyond trends and style – it must encompass sustainable development across all dimensions. “Sustainability must be integrated across the entire supply chain, from environmentally conscious manufacturing processes and low-emission transportation to conscious consumption. JASPAL GROUP focuses on promoting these approaches comprehensively, from selecting sustainable materials and investing in clean energy logistics, to engaging consumers through the use of recycled packaging. These efforts contribute to Thailand’s goal of achieving Net Zero by 2065.”
Mr. Thomas Sorensen, Chief Executive Officer of DB Schenker, Mekong Cluster, emphasized the company’s dedication to advancing sustainable logistics through strategic collaboration and innovative transport solutions. “This partnership is a reflection of what’s possible when two like-minded organizations come together with a shared vision. At DB Schenker, we’re proud to stand alongside JASPAL in driving forward sustainable transport solutions that help reduce emissions and improve environmental outcomes. Through collaboration, we’re making meaningful progress toward a more responsible and future-ready supply chain.”
Mr. Saran Limvorasak, Head of Land Transport, DB Schenker, Mekong Cluster, also shared. “Implementing electric trucks into daily operations is not just an upgrade — it’s a strategic move toward carbon-neutral logistics. We’re proud to work alongside JASPAL Group in turning sustainability goals into real, measurable impact on the road. It demonstrates how logistics and retail leaders can co-create practical solutions that benefit both business performance and the environment.”
In a joint effort to transform logistics operations, JASPAL GROUP, in collaboration with DB Schenker (Thai) Ltd., has deployed 4-wheel electric trucks to transport goods from distribution centers to retail branches in Bangkok and its vicinity. In 2024, this initiative successfully reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 2%, and in 2025, the company plans to expand its EV fleet to six vehicles to further support transportation to provincial branches.
Beyond the reduction of emissions, JASPAL GROUP is also committed to minimizing waste within its operations. To achieve this, the company has introduced a circular system for cardboard boxes, reusing them for deliveries between distribution centers and branches to extend their lifespan and reduce single-use waste. Additionally, JASPAL GROUP encourages environmentally friendly consumer habits through special campaigns promoting recycled paper bags.
Together, DB Schenker (Thai) Ltd. and JASPAL GROUP are setting an example of how cross-industry partnerships can accelerate the transition toward more sustainable logistics and business practices in Thailand and beyond.
