Logistics Plus is Named a 2026 G75 Green Supply Chain Partner by Inbound Logistics

Logistics Plus also earns Plastic Neutrality through Ocean Integrity’s Blue Ocean Program for a sixth year.

Logistics Plus is Named a 2026 G75 Green Supply Chain Partner by Inbound LogisticsERIE, PA (June 10, 2026) – Logistics Plus, Inc. (LP), a global leader in transportation, logistics, and unique supply chain solutions, is proud to announce that it has been named a 2026 G75 Green Supply Chain Partner by Inbound Logistics magazine. The annual Green 75 awards recognize supply chain companies, 3PLs, and carriers that exhibit exceptional environmental stewardship, sustainable operations, and a commitment to going green every day.

As noted in the Inbound Logistics G75 listing:

In 2021, Logistics Plus became the first logistics company to achieve Plastic Neutrality certification through Ocean Integrity’s Blue Ocean Program. The company has maintained that certification for five consecutive years, financing the collection of more than 3.5 million kilograms of ocean plastic waste—more than 100 times its own plastic footprint. The company’s sustainability initiatives also focus on power efficiency: Its warehouses run on 99% electric forklifts, solar energy powers roughly 20% of its warehouse operations, and all facilities utilize LED lighting and energy-efficient electronics across its network.

The updated G75 list appears in the June 2026 Sustainability edition of Inbound Logistics magazine in both print and digital formats. The digital format will soon be available at https://www.inboundlogistics.com/digital-editions/.

Ocean-Integrity-LogoIn related news, last week Logistics Plus was presented with its sixth consecutive Plastic Neutrality certification as part of Ocean Integrity’s Blue Oceans Program. This year alone, Logistics Plus assisted in the retrieval of nearly 100,000 pounds of plastic in collaboration with Ocean Integrity.

“Please congratulate Logistics Plus for its partnership with oceanintegrity.org and for helping [Ocean Integrity] collect more plastic waste from our waterways on a yearly basis than what they use,” commented Captain Keiran Kelly, Founder and CEO of Ocean Integrity. “We cannot operate without companies like them.”

NMFC Changes Effective May 23, 2026

NMFC Changes Effective May 23, 2026

NMFC Changes Effective May 23, 2026As a reminder, the National Motor Freight Traffic Association’s (NMFTA) next round of actions from the Freight Classification Development Council (FCDC) Docket 2026-1, which introduces significant updates to the classification of several commodity groups, will take effect on May 23, 2026.

The NMFTA continues to move away from specific commodity descriptions in favor of broader descriptions and a standardized density scale, with density as the primary factor. These updates aim to make it easier for shippers to accurately classify freight and reduce billing disputes; the process began in January 2025 and continues with Docket 2026-1.

Key impact areas include updates to several categories, such as the drugs, medicines, toilet preparations, or personal care products category; the business or office machines category; and various obsolete provisions.

As a reminder, these changes do not come from Logistics Plus but from the NMFTA’s FCDC. Please review it to determine whether your LTL freight shipments will be affected, or contact a Logistics Plus freight specialist.
