Scheduled Shipments

For several years the Fisher Scientific channel has enabled customers to run lean and order frequently with next-day delivery. Whilst this behaviour is economically efficient, it is not environmentally sustainable, and customers need a solution.

Rapid shipping remains important to many of our customers.

However, we must also consider the need for more sustainable shipping.

  • Transportation can typically comprise 10% of your customer's carbon footprint.
  • Unless transportation emissions are reduced, your customers will have difficulty achieving their climate goals.

  • Ask your customers to place standing orders. But remember that fewer deliveries may require your customer to maintain slightly larger stock on their premises to avoid running out.
  • Additionally, for customers with designated dispatch days, Edge rapid shipping items will be dispatched according to this schedule, not next-day.
