ESG Commitment
At European Loc Pool (ELP), we are deeply committed to driving sustainability and responsible business practices across the rail industry. Our focus on environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and strong governance underpins everything we do – from our leasing services to our daily operations.
Environmental Leadership
Reducing Emissions with Hybrid Locomotives
Our fleet, including the innovative EuroDual and Euro9000 locomotives, is designed to significantly reduce environmental impact. These hybrid locomotives operate efficiently on both electrified and non-electrified tracks, cutting down emissions and optimizing energy use across Europe’s rail networks
EcoVadis Rating
ELP is proud to have received a Silver rating from EcoVadis, reflecting our commitment to sustainability. This rating underscores our efforts to improve environmental management, ethical business conduct, and sustainable procurement. We are continuously striving to enhance our practices to move toward higher sustainability standards.
Social Responsibility
Supporting Community Initiatives
We take responsibility beyond our core business and actively engage in the regions where we operate.
Through our partnership with Sportnetz Frauenfeld, we have launched the ELP Next Generation Award. With this initiative, we specifically support youth and grassroots sports. Together, we promote projects that strengthen young people in their development, encourage responsibility, and create long-term perspectives.
In doing so, we contribute to strengthening the local community and combine business success with sustainable social impact.
