2022 - Energie transition Shell BIOLNG
As a progressive company, we must continue to innovate and see alternative fuels reflected in every major tender. The switch to LNG was made for the following reasons:
LNG is a game changer that best suits our German routes. LNG trucks are exempt from MAUT, which saves us 17 cents per kilometre. We are very satisfied with our LNG trucks due to their long action radius, reliability and low operational costs. We are ambitious about our business footprint and Shell BioLNG is the right fuel to start this journey to net zero. We can now give our customers a 30% CO2 saving with Shell BioLNG compared to diesel. -
2020 - WE DRIVE FOR THE BEST
Transport can really be compared to top sport! Every day you have to be sharp, get everything out of it, train, want to get better and only the best teams move forward, are seen and can invest. We have also made investments, we want to take steps with LNG and have therefore decided not to invest in diesels anymore. 25 LNG cars will be added to our fleet in the next 4 months, bringing us to a total of 37 LNG trucks, which ensures that 25% runs on LNG and we also want to be progressive with this, by making our fleet more sustainable with LNG vehicles. expandable to 37 pieces, 2x volvo, 3x Iveco, 32x scanias. -

2019 - LNG
March - LNG, the first 2 of a series of 5 scania's have been delivered that run on LNG instead of diesel! We are now happy to have taken the next step in the future and the environmental impact.

And we want to be and remain progressive, so LNG in our fleet is a conscious choice! -

Our transport company can now supply German customers with the LHV. However, the maximum weight is 40 tons, so the use of the Lang-LKW is limited to light loads. We have already done two trips to Germany. -
