Operating from a 60,000-square-meter site in the Orléans region, GXO manages storage, distribution, seasonal returns, and value-added services for a range of Henkel products. The addition of the beauty segment will further use advanced technologies such as a pick-to-light solution and an inventory viewer, designed to improve picking processes and increase operational efficiency.
Henkel and GXO also share a commitment to sustainability, with measures already in place to reduce the environmental impact of their operations. These include the installation of LED lighting with twilight and motion detection systems and the use of a flock of sheep for sustainable green space maintenance. Plans are underway to install solar panels that are expected to cover up to 50% of the site’s electricity needs.
GXO also provides co-packing services and transport control for Henkel’s products in both mainland France and French overseas territories. The site handles brands such as Super Croix, Xtra, Le Chat, Persil, and Schwarzkopf, among others.
