TNT launches new corporate website
after name change from TPG N.V. to TNT N.V.
Today TNT launched its new corporate website at www.tnt.com/group. The site reflects the uniting of the group’s Mail, Express and Logistics divisions under one strong, international brand – TNT – and follows shareholder approval of the statutory name change from TPG N.V. to TNT N.V.
The site has been rebuilt totally to the exacting requirements of the World Wide Web Consortium, the organisation that defines world-class standards in web technology. The TNT website is a European leader in the achievement on these standards, and builds on past successes, including a top three position in the Financial Times European web ranking and first place in the Financieele Dagblad Dutch corporate ranking.
The website is now accesible from any navigation device (text-only browsers, screen reading programs, PDAs, mobiles, etc.), as well as through access tools for the disabled.
