FOUNDATION FRAMEWORK represents the profession as a trusted voice to provide advice and guidance to Government on matters relating to construction , engineering and sustainability . CIBSE ’ s Technical Director , Dr Anastasia Mylona , stated : “ This launch marks a significant milestone in understanding the embodied carbon implications of logistics buildings and underscores our commitment to sustainability within the built environment . By pooling our expertise with Amazon and Introba , we will empower stakeholders across the logistics sector with actionable insights to drive positive change .”
Amazon is guided by four principles : customer obsession rather than competitor focus , passion for invention , commitment to operational excellence and long-term thinking . Amazon pronounces their goals in striving to be the Earth ’ s Most Customer-Centric Company , Earth ’ s Best Employer , and Earth ’ s Safest Place to Work . Frank Lindner , Director , Operations Engineering EMEA , Amazon , added : “ Calculating and understanding embodied carbon is a challenge across many sectors , and we ’ re proud to have supported CIBSE in their efforts to create robust industry guidance that will help Amazon and all those in the industry better understand their footprints and make more informed design and buying decisions .”
Introba is one of the world ’ s leading building engineering and consulting firms , with more than 1,000 employees in offices across the United States , Canada , the United Kingdom , Serbia and Australia . Introba claims to be ‘ committed to reshaping the world ’, with its problem solvers combining cutting-edge digital solutions with emerging innovations and industry-leading sustainability strategies to transform the built environment . Introba ’ s Head of Sustainability for UK and Europe , Andy Stanton , commented : “ TM65.3 is our first step along the journey to quantifying the embodied carbon across various logistics building typologies , particularly material handling equipment . There is no sign of demand for goods and services decreasing any time soon , so the need to understand the embodied carbon of the fast-growing logistics sector is paramount .”
As the logistics industry continues to evolve , TM65.3 will serve as a dynamic resource , with information continually updated as more manufacturers disclose data and Environmental Product Declarations ( EPDs ) become more prevalent . This ongoing collaboration between CIBSE , Amazon and Introba underscores a shared commitment to sustainability and innovation within the logistics sector . �
