The 20 remaining terminals in Norway were certified the same year. The entire company of Schenker AS was certified on the1st January 2007.
The certification involves environmental training of all the employees, environmental demands of their own purchases and demands of environmental accounts from the suppliers.

There is also a measure to reduce emissions from road traffic by 20 percent through improved co-ordination of traffic, use of technology, replacement of vehicles and training of the drivers for a more environmentally friendly driving style.
