Toyota Environmental Sustainablity Report

Service Parts and Accessories Logistics
Our Parts Supply Chain Group (PSCG) includes one central
warehouse in Belgium and 13 regional depots in Europe. We
have faced many challenges over the past few years and are
working to further strengthen our supply chain strategy to
avoid unpredictable demand and delivery. These efforts will
result in cost reduction, an increase in service effi ciency and
environmental improvement. The three main environmental
impacts of our operations are :
C O 2 emissions from transportation
The environmental impact of our warehouses
Packaging materials.
The main reasons for this achievement include :
The switch from Euro3/4 engines to Euro4/5. Until FY09,
72% of the mileage by road in international trucking was
driven in Euro3 trucks. In FY10 only 32% was driven by
Euro3 type engines. In FY10, the Euro4 increased from 20%
up to 40% and Euro5 from 8% to 28%.
The review of the retail distribution network in Germany and
Spain. This led to changes resulting in more effi cient linehauls
(-403 tonnes CO 2 per year). In the UK at the end of 2010
we started using double-deck trailers for the line-hauls from
the depot to the platforms (-124 tonnes CO 2 per year) :
Tonnes CO2
The modal shifts from road to rail and sea implemented in
2009 have been continued and intensifi ed where possible.
The mileage by road is still decreasing but is less pronounced
than in 2009.
CO 2 Emissions from Transport
In FY10, the PSCG succeeded in further reducing CO 2
emissions by continuing and, where possible, intensifying
activities already started in FY09 and before.
While the warehouse operations division continued to focus
on improving case and truck density, the transportation
department encouraged logistics partners to switch to
cleaner truck engines, reviewed the retail distribution
network and continued the modal shift from road to rail
and sea. The overall result of CO 2 emissions of 0.455kg/km
is well below the FY10 target of 0.466kg/km.

We will continue to make improvements by further reviewing
our network and by increasing the use of environmentallyfriendly
trucks.
Environmental Impact of our Warehouses
All of our 14 Parts Distribution Centres (PDCs) are certifi ed to
the ISO14001 environmental management standard. The key
environmental aspects we track are energy consumption and
waste management.
