Logistop and the Association of Promoters, Owners and Users of Logistics Warehouses in Spain (APPUNLE – Asociación de Promotores, Propietarios y Usuarios de Naves Logísticas de España) have signed a Collaboration Agreement that will allow both associations to join forces to establish ways of action that favour and increase mutual benefit.
One of the priority areas of work to be developed within the framework of this agreement will be the implementation of innovation projects in the area of decarbonisation and energy efficiency in logistics warehouses.
To this end, within the framework of the agreement signed, Logistop and APPUNLE have agreed to hold two annual events, one of which will be aimed at disseminating knowledge about Logistop’s areas of work and carrying out the transfer of R+D+i results to the APPUNLE environment; while the second event will be aimed at seeking lines of work that produce an improvement in different aspects and problems of the logistics sector and the development of its activity (environmental, social or economic).
It is also proposed to promote the development and implementation of R+D+i projects between Logistop and APPUNLE associates, for which a work calendar will be drawn up on different topics.
Likewise, and in order to achieve the proposed objectives, a work of observation will be carried out on innovation and trends that are taking place and/or that are applicable to logistics warehouses.
