June 25, 2021. The firm NB Cargo acquired three Scania trucks powered by compressed natural gas (CNG) from the Green Efficiency line, which in the first trips provided a total saving of 30% compared to their diesel peers on the same trips.
Despite achieving such a considerable reduction in costs, a fundamental reason for adding the Scania of the Green Efficiency line was the large reduction in polluting emissions and the low overall environmental impact, as reported from the transport company.
“For four years we have been making reports on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainability, we adhere to and support the United Nations Global Compact and seek a way, with current technologies, to have a positive impact on the environment. One of the best possibilities we found were these CNG trucks that meet Euro 6 standards and greatly improve our environmental indicators”, described one of the partners and founders of NB, Juan Novara.
Ten years ago, the firm certified the ISO 14001 standards on environmental management. This allowed it to further strengthen the relationship with its clients, made up of companies such as Arcor, Unilever, Kimberley-Clark, Molinos, Correo Argentino, Grupo Peñaflor, Pepsico and others, some of which carry out audits with this focus on their customers. suppliers: “customers encourage us to have a lower environmental impact and our goal is to continue betting on caring for the environment and continuous improvement with a view to the sustainability of our processes, facing the community,” added Sandro Cipriani, another of the partners.
The vehicles acquired consist of two G 410 6×2 CNG tractors, prepared to transport up to 55.5 tons and a G 410 4×2 CNG. The three-axle G 410s circulate between San Luis and Buenos Aires carrying containers, in one case, and Córdoba and Buenos Aires to carry a semi-trailer with glucose, in the other.
