Short delivery routes
We are reducing supply traffic – for the sake of the environment
In all product areas of OBO, we produce a large proportion of products in-house, which puts us in the comfortable and secure position of being able to act independently of suppliers in many cases. This goes hand in hand with our well-stocked warehouses.
In Germany alone, we have around 38,000 square metres at our disposal. With respect to sustainability, this means short delivery routes. This helps us to reduce CO2 emissions and to minimise the impact of our delivery traffic on the environment.

The 48,000 square metres of storage space are divided across five warehouses:
Bad Fallingbostel [1] │ Menden [2] │ Delitzsch [3] │ Groß-Rohrheim [4] │ Dasing [5]
This means we can guarantee flexible and rapid delivery capability at all times, and achieve a volume of around 80,000 tonnes per year in Germany. We are constantly on the move and our trained specialists in the field of logistics ensure that our products are in the right place at the right time, while always keeping an eye on our environmental impact.
Of course, this also applies in an international context: With 40 subsidiaries in more than 60 countries, we can guarantee customer proximity and short distances on all continents worldwide.

The project aligns with the following Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations
