16 Sep 2024

zedify

At Reskinned, we're all about making meaningful changes whenever and wherever we can. A key part of our business model is continuously revisiting how we operate to ensure we're doing the best we can for the planet. That's why we've made the switch to Zedify as our courier service. Zedify are a sustainable and zero-emission courier service that is officially leading the way in sustainable urban logistics. With sustainability at the very core of their mission, we knew this was going to be a match made in heaven. So now, when your pre-loved clothes are delivered to your door, they arrive with a much smaller carbon footprint. We’re always excited to move towards more sustainable solutions, and this change is a significant step in our journey. It highlights our dedication to reducing our carbon footprint and ensuring that every part of our process supports a greener, more sustainable future.

Our Commitment to Sustainability at Reskinned

We’re committed to sustainability - not just in our business model, but also in our everyday operations. And when a company catches our eye because they’re embodying our values, well, we just have to get them on board. It’s as simple as that. (Okay, it definitely wasn’t that simple!).

For us, switching to a green courier service like Zedify was a natural progression in our mission to operate as sustainably as possible. Ready to get into the “why?”

Why Zedify?

We chose to work with Zedify because of their innovative approach to deliveries. With pedal-powered electric cargo bikes, they are dedicated to reducing their emissions, traffic congestion and pollution (while making sure your delivery gets to you as fast as possible).

Our head office is in London, so our team sees first hand how much traffic and pollution are affecting the city.

Zedify operates at 84% lower CO2 emissions compared to traditional delivery methods, and their 0 NOx emissions help improve air quality in cities, contributing to cleaner urban environments. Currently their services are available in cities like London, Manchester, Glasgow, Bristol, Cambridge, Norwich, Plymouth and Brighton, but there are some big plans in the works to expand in 2025.

How Does It Work?

Zedify operates through a mesh city model, which means their deliveries are sectioned out into different hubs throughout the cities and the UK.

This means reduced mileage, maximised efficiency and extended delivery service hours.

By making good use of existing cycle lanes, Zedify’s electric bikes can avoid all the congested roads and not get caught up in traffic - so their delivery times are more accurate and generally, not late as often.

The Numbers That Matter

By partnering with Zedify, we’re drastically cutting our carbon emissions.

Zedify’s cargo bike deliveries operate with 95% lower carbon emissions compared to electric vans, saving tons of CO2 every single month.

Their collaboration with big retailers like Zara has reduced Scope 3 emissions by over 90%. Sustainable solutions really don’t need to come with a sacrifice.

A Better Delivery Experience

Ehem ehem… did we stutter?

As we were saying, this is not going to mean slower deliveries. On the contrary, it’s actually going to mean speeding them up! They’ve got an impressive 99.5% first-time delivery success rate.

Plus they’ll send you fun notifications to tell you all the good you’ve been doing like: “Your recent delivery saved 12kg of CO2,” so you can celebrate alongside us.

What This Means for You

Switching to Zedify in the main UK cities means you get eco-friendly deliveries with better service. You can take pride in knowing that each Reskinned order you place helps reduce congestion, promote cleaner air, and minimise carbon emissions.
