TESTIMONIALS

“For our haulier project, we worked together with VIL. We have chosen for VIL, because they best matched our needs and also for their straightforward approach. The VIL team has know-how, expertise and importantly for our project; they have an extensive network. All key ingredients of a successful collaboration!”

 

 

“Indaver has the ambition to further digitize and optimize its logistics systems. The current barcode system that monitors part of the logistics flow has had its day and needs to be renewed. For reasons of efficiency, we also want to use RFID as a technology for this. For this, we ended up with VIL who has relevant, long-standing experience in the technology.”

 

“Thanks to the support of VIL, we managed to obtain a solid grant from VLAIO. Together with our partners Selas and Brainjar, the Tech leg within our group is now really getting off the ground. Without VIL’s intervention, we would never have succeeded, because the risks would simply have been too great.”

 

“We were very pleased with the pragmatic approach VIL conducted to determine the impact of possible measures to reduce waiting times for trucks at the container terminal of the Deurganckdok,. The project was also performed within the scheduled time frame.”

Logistics Sustainability Index®

The Logistics Sustainability Index® (LSI) is the first index that assesses the sustainability performance of a company’s logistics operations. Its purpose is to benchmark companies so they can position themselves against the competition. 

The LSI rates companies in four different areas: policy, logistics, packaging and transportation. Depending on the scores, each company is assigned a category for each domain: straggler, rookie, adopter, frontrunner or master. 

BACK TO OVERVIEW

Why is LSI of interest to your company? 

  • It shows that you are not just greenwashing, but taking concrete steps to make your company and your activities more sustainable.
  • Participation in the LSI not only provides you with a European registered logo that makes you stand out – e.g. in a tender or to your stakeholders, but it is also a unique tool to benchmark against your competitors.
  • With LSI you can leave your gut feeling or chasing trends and ‘simple’ tactics behind and see where in terms of sustainability your company can concretely and realistically improve and how.

Testimonials about VIL’s services

 

“I like to thank VIL and partners very much for the constructive cooperation in conducting the study ‘Food Distribution Platforms and Logistics’. I am convinced that the results will contribute to the further growth of Food Distribution Platforms in Flanders.”

 

 

 
“We are a manufacturer of high quality bituminous roofing membranes and, due to our steady growth, were looking to expand our storage capacity. The geographically enclosed location, on the border of the industrial zone and the residential area, forces us to be very creative with the available space. Under the expert guidance of VIL and their collaborative ‘out of the box’ thinking, we very efficiently and purposefully arrived at a proposal of a semi high-rise warehouse, served by AGVs. Throughout this entire process, VIL was a partner who more than lived up to our expectations.”

 

“Already for the third time, ING has collaborated with VIL on a research project, this time around the ‘Fuel for the Future’ study on alternative fuels for road transport. That report compares biodiesel, natural gas, battery-electric and hydrogen in economic, environmental and operational terms. VIL’s expertise and network supported the execution of the scientific analysis and the survey, which provided interesting insights into the sustainable commitment of the sector. Thanks to VIL’s good coordination, the project was delivered correctly and on time.”
