Forest made possible by Container Centralen and CC European Retail
In 2020, Container Centralen split into two companies. Container Centralen and CC European Retail. In the future, Container Centralen will focus on horticulture and CC European Retail will specialize in retail. Both companies had the goal to grow together but separately. So they bought an area in Limburg together and planted a forest there, ensuring that they grow together sustainably.
"As the CC carts are re-stackable, they offer a sustainable means of transport. Processing the trolleys in this new way means that the number of trips is reduced from six to one."
CC and Sustainability
Reuse; that’s what it’s all about at Container Centralen. Returnable Transport Items (RTI’s), also called Reusable Transport Items, are the basis of sustainable logistics.
The United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim to bring an end to poverty, inequality and climate change. A total of 17 goals have been set. CC’s core activities contribute towards goals 9, 12 and 17. In terms of in-house operations, CC is also working on goal 10.

Customer case: Celieplant/Bouquetnet
“CC is an essential understanding from the flower an plantworld: we also use the Danish Container. It makes your transport efficient and you have no waste”
Sustainability and CC products: tested for multiple usage
Reusable carriers must last a long time; robust design and great quality are therefore vital. The wooden shelves on the CC Container, for use in the ornamental plant sector, are tested thoroughly at three points.
