The DPD Locker robots, developed by DPD UK, are designed to provide a more sustainable and safe delivery solution, integrating perfectly into existing city infrastructures. These cutting-edge robots can make up to 8 deliveries as well as travel to predetermined public locations where they can be used as a drop-off point for consumer returns. The robots are equipped with 360° scanning capability and 12 surround cameras for added security, as well as a loudspeaker for additional alerts. With this solution, DPD UK is revolutionising last-mile delivery and providing a more sustainable tool that will contribute to decarbonising the logistics industry as a whole.

Responding to a number of strategic challenges, both economic and environmental, Geopost’s Out-of-Home network operator, Pickup, has launched the first-ever solar powered lockers in France. This new generation locker, equipped with batteries and capable of operating for up to 10 days without sunlight, offers a collection service that is both convenient and has a lower environmental impact. Consuming less energy than their standard counterparts, these solar-powered lockers also help to reduce the electricity bills of partner retailers.
