Customer survey helps children

(PresseBox) (Weinheim, )

  • trans-o-flex supports special school with a donation of € 4,000
  • Inclusion: special schools continue to be important for the targeted education of people with disabilities
Fill in a questionnaire and do good: this is what 265 customers of trans-o-flex did. In its most recent customer survey, the provider of logistic services had promised to donate € 10 for each completed questionnaire. The company's employees and management topped up the amount of € 2,650 to € 4,000. Now, the donation has been handed over to the Haus Freudenberg special school in Kleve. The all-day school with its focus on mental development has more than 200 pupils, who are taught by about 70 teachers.

Special schools threatened with closure
Since 2010, the state of North Rhine-Westphalia closed more than 150 special schools as part of the introduction of inclusive education at regular schools. Despite a rethinking process in the new state government, the Ministry of Education expects that another approximately 30 special schools will be threatened with closure in the coming years. “For decades, special schools have been making a very successful contribution to the inclusion of people with disabilities, which, in this form, is often not possible for regular schools," says Wolfgang P. Albeck, CEO of trans-o-flex. “This is why, with our donation, we would like to draw the public’s attention to the importance of targeted education at special schools for the children's development and to the fact that these schools will continue to be necessary in the future, despite all the inclusion projects at regular schools.”

The trans-o-flex Group's core competence focuses on the provision of logistic solutions for the pharmaceutical, cosmetics and consumer electronics industries as well on the transportation of other high-quality, sensitive goods. For the transportation of pharmaceutical products, trans-o-flex has built a nationwide network that includes active temperature control and full documentation. To this end, the company, in its Pharma Logistics business area, has installed transport systems that are suitable for the transportation of pharmaceutical products in the temperature ranges of between 15 and 25 °C and between 2 and 8 °C in compliance with the EU directives for the transportation of pharmaceutical products. In its Technology Logistics business area, trans-o-flex organises transports for customers from other industries, mainly consumer electronics. These customers also benefit from the high standards with respect to safety, hygiene, reliability and transparency which trans-o-flex has established for the pharmaceutical industry. In its Contract Logistics business area, trans-o-flex bundles services from storage and picking & packing up to individual value-added services. At an international level, trans-o-flex focuses on the implementation of logistic concepts via the networks EUROTEMP (temperature-controlled logistics) and EURODIS (in 36 European countries). Both nationally and internationally, trans-o-flex, in contrast to 100-% parcel services or forwarding agencies, delivers both goods in parcels and on pallets and also offers special services, such as the transportation of hazardous goods (without being limited to small quantities), express and time-window deliveries, shipment consolidation as well as direct deliveries. Thus, the company covers the entire logistic chain from procurement and warehousing to distribution and fulfilment. In 2017, annual sales of the trans-o-flex Group, which has a workforce of approximately 2,060 employees, amounted to ca. € 459 million. For more information, go to www.trans-o-flex.com.
