According to BBM Logistics, the goal is to minimize the socio-environmental impacts caused by traditional automobiles

BBM Logistics has added two new electric vehicle models to its current fleet. According to the logistics company, this initiative is part of a set of Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) actions, which considered the emissions of CO2 gases that can reach a total of 61 tons for every 36,000 liters of fuel used.

The goal that led to the adoption of these actions is to minimize the socio-environmental impacts caused by traditional automobiles and, to achieve this, the company plans to take actions such as zeroing carbon emissions and atmospheric pollutants while electric vehicles operate, in addition to reducing noise. Furthermore, another positive consequence is that the production and operational chain of these electric vehicles generates a lower volume of waste, due to its lower need for the use of fluid oils.

Electric Vehicles Used by BBM Logistics

According to the logistics company, the electric vehicles were acquired through a partnership with the manufacturer JAC Motors, which is providing the Van BYD model and T3 e-delivery, with a range of 200KM; and the iEV1200T truck. BBM reported that both vehicles are 100% electric and are included in the project aimed at effectively distributing products for the client Henkel to the city of Campinas, as well as to Greater São Paulo.

The expectation is that this new mode of transportation will cover a total of 4,000 kilometers per month and the energy that will power these electric vehicles will be produced through solar panels that will be installed at the client’s facility.

“The BBM Group is committed to promoting sustainable development throughout the supply chain. We believe that it is necessary to think of new ways to align results with sustainability, and utilizing cleaner energy sources is essential for us to continue growing across Brazil and Mercosur. In this way, we will build a better world for future generations through partnerships with our clients.” – André Prado, CEO of BBM Logistics.

According to BBM Logistics, electric vehicles are crucial for nighttime deliveries and for operations that do not cause noise, in addition to not needing to participate in license plate restrictions in large cities. The logistics company also stated that the technology of the vans and trucks is innovative and offers various interactions with the driver working in the distribution service.

“We want to present solutions to our clients for carbon reduction across the entire logistics chain. Only then will we be protagonists in building a better world,” highlights Prado.
